Coolangatta Gold

The Coolangatta Gold is one of the most challenging endurance races in surf sports. What began as the central theme for a motion picture more than 35 years ago, now commands a place on Australia’s annual calendar of prestigious sporting events.

The Coolangatta Gold consists of a 21 kilometre Short Course run on Saturday and a 41.8 kilometre Long Course race and a Youth Challenge for competitors aged 10-16. The multi-disciplinary course combines swimming, running, board paddling and surf skiing.

The event in 2022 will run over the weekend of 15-16 October at Coolangatta.
