Cap d'Agde Sunset Marathon

Picture the scene: the sun slowly sinks toward the horizon, the sea takes on orange hues, and you run along the beaches with a cheering crowd. The Cape d'Agde Sunset Marathon is exactly that. On Saturday, June 27, 2026, the resort transforms into a massive sports celebration where effort blends with music and golden evening light. A race at sunset, unlike anything else you'll find on the coast.

The start and finish take place at Cape d'Agde, near the Palais des Congrès, in an atmosphere like no other. Throughout the course, DJs, live music groups, and aid stations set the rhythm of every kilometer. You run, you feel the energy, and you celebrate all at once. Whether you're a seasoned runner or an amateur looking for an original challenge, there's an event for you.

The program is generous: a 42.2 km marathon, 21.1 km half-marathon, 10 km race, and children's races so the whole family can participate. The route is a true postcard landscape. It crosses the beaches, follows the banks of the Hérault River, winds through the historic heart of Agde with its black stone cathedral and narrow streets, before running along the harbor.
