This special policy allows runners from around the world to experience the warmth of the tropics and the excitement of racing in China without complicated entry procedures.
The Haikou Marathon welcomes 20,000 participants each year, creating a festive atmosphere where elite athletes, recreational runners, and international guests gather to celebrate health, sportsmanship, and cultural exchange. Taking place around the New Year holiday, the event is not only a race but also a grand celebration, marking a fresh start with energy, passion, and unforgettable memories.
