The Atlantic Ultra Marathon Melides–Troia is an endurance event held on Portugal’s southwest coast, where participants run entirely on sand from Melides to Troia. The route passes through beaches such as Aberta Nova, Gale, Pinheiro da Cruz, Pego, Carvalhal, and Comporta, ending at Beco das Lulas beach in Troia. Spectators often cheer runners along the coastline. A shorter alternative, the “Course of the Atlantic,” starts from Comporta and finishes at the same beach, offering a challenging experience on the scenic Atlantic shoreline.
