PARKING:
The morning of the event, the Marina parking lot will be blocked off for Shrimp Festival vendors only. Parking is first come first serve and is both metered on-street and several paid parking lots scattered throughout the city. Some good options include the Library Lot, Port Republic Square Parking Lot, or anywhere from Craven Street up to Bay Street. We recommend car pooling when possible if attending the race with other participants. Check out the Park Beaufort site to get directions to any of the parking spaces within walking distance to the race start line at 1006 Bay St, Beaufort, SC 29902.

DIRECTIONS: The race start/finish line is on Bay Street in-between the Marina and Best Western. The closest address reference point for your GPS is the downtown marina parking lot: 1006 Bay St, Beaufort, SC 29902. You'll want to make sure to plan out parking in advance as traffic is to be expected with the bridge blocked off for the race. Check Park Beaufort to plan out your parking. 

T-SHIRT GIVEAWAY:  If you've previously registered for our race in past years, please note we've had a change to our t-shirt vendor and will no longer be sending out links to order the swag on a separate site. Instead, the Race Registration page now includes the option to select your size. Your t-shirt will be available for pick-up the day before the race during Race Packet Pick-up or day of the race at the Start / Finish line. Please complete your registration by September 1, 2024 in order to qualify for a FREE race shirt. We cannot guarantee availability of your size preference for any registrations made after that date. Color and pattern of shirt may slightly vary from image mockup.

The race is open for runners and walkers of all abilities. The awards ceremony will begin immediately following the race. Virtual 5K participants are not eligible for trophy awards as they are self-timed.
