Nantasket Beach Run

A One-of-a-Kind Race on the Beach

Unlike any typical road race, the Nantasket Beach Run is held directly on the beach at low tide, offering a flat and firm surface that’s both runner-friendly and visually stunning. The 4-mile out-and-back course begins and ends near the Mary Jeanette Murray Bath House, with sweeping views of Nantasket Bay as your backdrop.

Whether you're pushing for a new PR or out for a relaxed walk with your kids, this race is designed for all ages and paces. You’ll love the refreshing ocean breeze, vibrant crowd, and post-run camaraderie that make this race a summer highlight.
