Racing at the 2018 World Rowing Coastal Championships in Victoria, Canada went through heats to finals with many races decided at the buoy turn as boats often clashed oars and gambled on their course. The finals were raced over a six-kilometre course beginning with a beach start followed by five buoy turns, then a beach finish.
