The route is well marked with signage at key turns and includes two water stations positioned near the halfway point and the final kilometre. With minimal elevation change, the course is ideal for personal best attempts and provides stunning sea views throughout. The finish line is situated back at the start area, allowing participants to celebrate their achievement surrounded by fellow athletes and supporters.
