About this race

Whitehaven Beach is the focus: world-renowned pristine white silica sands, azure Whitsundays water beside you, and a race that feels more like a managed island outing than a normal road morning. The Great Whitehaven Beach Run is part of the Hamilton Island Endurance Series, with junior fun runs included, so it suits families as well as runners who want a proper beach effort. The course is flat, but do not mistake that for easy. Firm white sand makes a unique running surface that's both challenging and exhilarating, and the beach can feel deceptively demanding on calves and stabilisers compared with road running. Runners work along the spectacular coastline, juniors get an introduction to beach racing, and the included ferry transfer from Hamilton Island adds a race-day ritual before you even reach the start line.
