Walkers Cayman Islands Marathon

The Walkers Cayman Islands Marathon & Festival of Running, held on Grand Cayman in the Cayman Islands, includes a full marathon, half marathon, four-person relay, and a Kids Fun Run. The AIMS-certified road race starts along Seafarers Way in George Town, travels through South Church Street and South Sound to Prospect Point (the turnaround), and loops back through George Town’s civic centre to finish by the waterfront at Breezes by the Bay.

Runners benefit from professional services, including chip timing, hydration and nutrition stations, pacing teams, medical support, baggage areas, and post-race amenities. The flat, coastal course qualifies for the Boston Marathon and draws a mix of international and local runners.

Post-race atmosphere includes music, cheering crowds, fresh finisher medals, and swag like technical shirts. The event typically sees over 1,500 participants and strong volunteer support.

As a destination race, the marathon pairs well with Cayman Islands tourism. Visitors can explore Seven Mile Beach, partake in watersports or snorkelling, visit Queen Elizabeth II Botanic Park, explore heritage sites like Pedro St. James, or swim with rays at Stingray City. George Town’s walkable layout and relaxed Caribbean setting make it easy to combine running with island sightseeing.
