About the race
The 2nd Annual Santa Beach Run is a festive 5K walk/run held in Atlantic Beach, North Carolina, supporting the Carteret Partnership for Children. Participants start at the historic Atlantic Beach Circle and race along the scenic beach, embracing the holiday spirit by wearing Santa hats, beards, and Christmas-themed attire. The event also features a free Reindeer Fun Run, a 50-yard walk/run for children aged 8 and under.
While not a timed or sanctioned race, the top male and female 5K finishers receive trophies. This community-focused event combines holiday cheer with charitable support for local children. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
