About the Maratona de Salvador
Bahia's flagship road race brings the marathon to Salvador's Atlantic waterfront as the longest event in a two-day running weekend. The full distance has its own federation permit and is separate from the half marathon, 10K, and 5K races.
Course
The marathon starts from the convention-center area and follows Salvador's urban waterfront. Current public material confirms the coastal setting but does not publish enough detail to call the route flat or describe every turn.
Race-day weather
Late September in Salvador is warm and humid, with coastal rain still possible. A conservative opening pace and steady hydration matter more here than cool-weather speed.
