Fuengirola Half Marathon 2026

The Fuengirola Half Marathon 2026 offers one of the most beautiful and enjoyable courses in southern Spain, combining a completely flat route with long stretches running right beside the sea. The race takes runners along the stunning Mediterranean coastline, passing through iconic areas such as the Paseo Marítimo, Los Boliches, the Sohail Castle surroundings and the Puente de la Armada. With open sea views and a bright coastal atmosphere, it’s a course that feels fast, scenic and highly motivating from start to finish. Fuengirola is a city that truly embraces its race. Runners enjoy constant support throughout the course, with music, live bands, cheering zones and a lively crowd that creates an energetic atmosphere almost the entire way. Combined with the mild and stable November weather on the Costa del Sol — cool, calm and ideal for endurance running — the event becomes a perfect opportunity to chase a personal best. The race features well‑distributed aid stations that ensure proper hydration and comfort throughout the 21.097 km, helping runners maintain their pace and enjoy the experience safely. After crossing the finish line, the celebration continues. The event offers a festive post‑race atmosphere with live entertainment, physiotherapy services, showers at the Juan Gómez “Juanito” Sports Hall, an official photo point with the giant finisher medal, and a free paella for 2,000 runners. There are also prize draws and a free kids’ area for children aged 4 to 12, making it an ideal event for both athletes and families.
