Castaway Cay, Disney’s very one private island, is one of the most beautiful and refreshing stops you will make on select Disney Cruises. An island full of fun and adventure for kids and adults alike! But don’t get to comfy! Castaway Cay offers a FREE 5K race! What a great way to burn off some of those calories from the amazing meals you will eat! And the best part is…It’s free! You can sign up online before you even arrive or at Port Excursions Desk on the ship.
The paths and roads are nice and flat and will take a lovely trip around sections of the island. Down an abandoned airstrip and around a nice bike loop with a lookout tower! Potions of the trail will offer some shady spots. That will keep the temperature under control. Don’t worry about getting lost. The course is well marked and with Cast Members to direct along the way. There are even water stations to quench your thirst. Don’t let the morning temperatures fool you! Once that sun comes over the horizon, Castaway Cay can get HOT HOT HOT!!
Disney does a wonderful job, as always, making the landscape and scenery on Castaway Cay an enjoyable one. As you run down the abandoned air strip, look for the plane and other hidden treasures along the way! And don’t be surprised if you meet a character or two!

Once you finish your race you will receive a Castaway Cay 5K finisher’s medal! What a great souvenir to take home with you! And don’t worry; even if your time is not the best, everyone gets one!! Don’t forget to stop by the gift shop to pick up your Castaway Cay 5K trading pin and T-shirt!
The Castaway Cay 5K is a wonderful way to start off your morning on Disney’s beautiful private island! Now you can sit back on the beach and enjoy the rest of your visit! Cocktail anyone?
