Amelia Island Half Marathon Weekend: October 10 and 11, 2026

The Amelia Island Half Marathon weekend hits Fernandina Beach October 10 and 11, 2026. The lineup includes the half marathon, a 12K, and the Lighthouse Loop 5K, so there is a distance for whatever shape your training is in.

• When: October 10 and 11, 2026
• Where: Fernandina Beach, Amelia Island
• Cost: Registration fees vary by race and date

What to expect

Flat coastal courses, historic district scenery, and October temperatures that finally cooperate with running. The 5K works as a family add-on while someone in your group suffers through 13.1.

Before you go

Register early since fees climb closer to race day. Island lodging books up on race weekend, and an early start means staying on island beats driving over from Jacksonville at 5 AM.
