About the race
The Waterfront Half Marathon is a seaside running event that starts at the Knysna Waterfront and follows the red brick road toward George Rex Drive before climbing to the East Heads lookout. The climb offers sweeping views across the Knysna lagoon and town, and the course mixes coastal road running with memorable viewpoints. The event is presented as a scenic, social race with a relaxed, family-friendly atmosphere. It includes options for competitive and casual participants and notes a hill on the route that provides the main viewpoint.
The course is described as road terrain with coastal scenery and viewpoints that reward the ascent. Entries close on 9 November 2026. The event lists the Knysna Waterfront as its location and frames the race as suited to families, social runners, and half marathon PB chasers. Runners are advised to follow marshals’ instructions and to expect a scenic but demanding coastal route. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
