Santa To The Sea Half Marathon

The Santa to the Sea Half Marathon is an annual nonprofit running event held in Oxnard, California, typically on the second Sunday of December. The race features a half marathon, quarter marathon, 5K, kids 1K, and a Diaper Dash, offering options for all ages and fitness levels. The half marathon course starts at a giant Santa along Interstate 101, runs through Oxnard’s strawberry fields, passes historic downtown, and finishes at the scenic Channel Islands Harbor.

The event includes a festive Finish Line Festival with activities, food, live entertainment, and a Santa’s Village. Proceeds support local children’s programs, including toy drives and scholarships for Ventura County youth. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
