Race Day Schedule & Arriving and Parking Details
Please read the information below to help you with your travel to FMB race morning:
We suggest everyone come to Fort Myers Beach early for the race on Wednesday. Registration opens at 6AM which is plenty of time to pick up your shirt and bib. We will be set up outside in the restaurant downstairs at DiamondHead Resort
The race begins at 8AM. We do not suggest wasting a lot of time driving around looking for the best spot. Please do not park on side streets, on the beach in the sand, in front of a private residence or in any unauthorized area. There will be limited parking in the DiamondHead parking lot and across the street in their overflow parking lot. Look for our volunteers to direct you. Those spots will be filled early and quickly.
The fastest way to avoid searching for a parking spot on race morning is to snag the first spot you see when you come over the Matanzas Pass Bridge.
We suggest you park at Lynn Hall park ($2.00 per hour), under the bridge or on Old San Carlos in the town owned spaces ($3.00 per hour), Norms Beach Parking lot ($20 for the day), or any of the other paid and town lots on Estero before you get to DiamondHead. If you drive to DiamondHead you are most likely going to have to turn around and drive back anyway so we recommend you park in the first spot you see. It's a short walk or jog to the resort.
***DO NOT PARK in the Key Estero Parking Lot. He will tow your car.
