🏃♀️🌞 SHRIMP FESTIVAL 5K 🦐🌴
Feel the thrill of the Fort Myers Beach Shrimp Festival 5K, where runners and walkers take on a scenic coastal course beginning and ending at the iconic Doc Ford’s Rum Bar & Grille. This beloved island tradition welcomes athletes of all levels — from competitive racers to fun-run families — coming together for sunshine, salt air, community pride, and festival-weekend excitement.
🌴 Island Course, Iconic Finish
Race along our beautiful shoreline surrounded by cheering spectators, Gulf breezes, music, and nonstop energy from start to finish. With expanded age divisions and an electric beachside atmosphere, this year promises unforgettable moments, friendly competition, and plenty of island spirit at the finish line.
👟 Festival Fitness Weekend
The celebration continues for families with our official Kids Run kickoff event held before the 5K. Young runners get their own special moment to shine — learn more here (link will lead to Kids Run page).
