IRONMAN Marbella has fastly become a moniker as it gets more participants excited each additional year. While it was postponed last year because of the height of the pandemic, it will soon once again become a reality as IRONMAN Marbella 2021 is set this September 2021.
The setting is still the beautiful and dreamy area of Marbella, Spain. This part of Spain is touted to be one of the most picturesque in all of coastal Spain.

Where else can athletes swim, bike, and run and still be able to bask in the beautiful scenery but only in Marbella, Spain?
Ironman Marbella starts with a beautiful 1.2 mile swim in the beach of Puerto Banus Levante beach of the Mediterranean Sea. Here, crowds and supporters can actually look out from their terraces and balconies and enjoy this historical event unfold in front of their eyes. Several holiday goers set their holiday travels to Marbella, Spain around this time. Even if you are not an athlete or aspiring marathoner, you can enjoy the camaraderie and cheer on your favourite participants.
With the COVID pandemic still in the air, one can say that supporting your athletes from a distance is definitely worth it.

Vacation Marbella, one trusted and recommended luxury accommodation offers several properties within this area where you can feel safe and still feel the ambience of Ironman 70.3 Marbella in front of you.
After the swim, athletes are then taken to a 56 mile loop starting at the“Gold Mile” of Marbella. This bike course enables participants to cycle across the city of Marbella and get a feel of the old and new diverse looks of this beautiful place.
