Broome International Airport Marathon

Cable Beach is the focus: hard-packed sand, open sky, and the turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean. The Broome International Airport Marathon uses Cable Beach as its race track, with an out-and-back course that feels more like a beach challenge than a city road race. Tide timing is considered, with conditions chosen to provide runners firm, fast sand. The route goes from the Cable Beach start/finish area toward Gantheaume Point, then returns, allowing runners to see the same stretch of Cable Beach from both directions. Aid stations are located at the turnaround and start/finish, a practical setup for a course with breeze, sun, and limited shade. The shorter distance suits beginners with good fitness, while the longer distances on sand require solid training and respect.
