VM Events presents the return of the Sun to Surf Run & Walk events in Ohope, New Zealand! Welcoming participants of all abilities to experience the unique beach vibes of the treasured Eastern Bay region, and enjoy a slice of ocean paradise!
Whether you’re looking to nail a personal best on our flat and fast 21.1km and 10km courses, or wanting to embrace the end of our amazing Kiwi summer with family and friends in the 5km or The Wilde Whippet kids’ 1km fun social distances, Sun to Surf ticks all the boxes.
Hang out in the Sun to Surf Craft Food and Beverage Village and enjoy entertainment in the picturesque Port Ōhope Wharf. A popular fishing spot where the stunning scenery and the ocean air warms your soul.
VM Events are proud to support the work of Coast Care and the Marshall-Inman Whakaari Trust through Sun to Surf 2025, and we’re giving you the opportunity to do the same!
When you go through the entry process, you can opt-out of receiving your finisher medal and make a donation to one of our chosen community partners instead. It’s totally up to you, and we know they appreciate any help they get.
