Ample parking is available around the St. Simons Casino and Lighthouse, ensuring a smooth race day experience.

More than just a race, the Super Dolphin Day Race is a treasured Golden Isles tradition, bringing together over 1,500 participants in a celebration of fitness and community spirit. Join fellow runners for a memorable day that combines the joy of running with meaningful support for local education.
