Run for the Oceans 2026

Run for the Oceans 2026 is imperative to driving this movement, building incredible momentum, and initiating necessary change to protect life below water and ensure the sustainable use of oceans and climate action (UN Sustainable Development Goals 13 and 14). The United Nations Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development (2021–2030) and World Oceans Day will inspire young people to take action for our oceans and help build a more sustainable future. Our primary goal is to educate young people about marine plastic pollution, a serious environmental threat wreaking havoc on our oceans.

Run for the Oceans is a race in Cox's Bazar. These ocean races are available for individuals to compete in a full marathon (42.195 km), half marathon (21.0975 km), 10 km, and 5 km. The Bay of Bengal, which borders the southern region of Bangladesh with a shoreline of approximately 710 km, boasts the longest sea beach and road, stretching 80 km from Cox's Bazar to Teknaf, making it the world's longest marine drive. It is renowned for its picturesque coastal route.
