Tauranga City to Surf
Tauranga City to Surf is a running event held in Mount Maunganui on Sunday 8 November 2026. It offers three distances that use the Mount Maunganui base track and finish on the sand outside the Mount Surf Club.
The courses include coastal and estuary sections and cross the Harbour Bridge to reach the base track of Mauao. Aid stations provide water and R-line electrolyte at set locations on each course, and additional water and electrolyte are available at the finish. Portaloos are provided at both start lines and the finish, with public toilets along the route.
A one-way shuttle service runs from the Mount Surf Club to the start area for the half marathon and 11 km events; this service carries gear bags back to the finish and has an additional charge. Event entries are offered with multiple pricing periods and a family pass option. Minimum age requirements apply for each distance.
Event rules note that prams and strollers are not permitted, walkers start after runners for safety and must adhere to walking criteria, and the use of headphones is discouraged. Timing transponders are issued at registration and finishers receive a medal. The 11 km includes a corporate and gym/club team challenge based on combined placings.
