2026 European Rowing Club Coastal Championships

Clubs take centre stage at the European Rowing Club Coastal Championships, the continental endurance title contested by club crews rather than national selections. The racing is held in La Linea, Spain, on the Bay of Gibraltar, from 17 to 19 September 2026.

This is grassroots coastal rowing at its most competitive. Crews represent their home clubs over the long offshore course, and the entry list often spans seasoned veterans and ambitious newcomers chasing a European result for their boathouse.

The Bay of Gibraltar offers a demanding stretch of water, with tide and wind shaping each race around the marks. For the clubs that travel here, a continental coastal title is a prize that carries real standing back home.
