About the KLM Curaçao Marathon

KLM Curaçao Marathon is an overnight island road race centered on Willemstad. The full distance combines waterfront miles, city roads, and a major bridge crossing before a beach-area finish after sunrise.

Course

The marathon moves between Willemstad’s waterfront districts and climbs the Queen Juliana Bridge, the route’s defining elevation change. Flat coastal stretches, turns, wind, and the transition from darkness to daylight shape the remaining miles.

Race-day weather

Late November in Willemstad remains warm and humid, often around 77-88°F (25-31°C). The overnight start limits direct sun early, but warmth, trade wind, and possible showers persist through the race.
