🏃 Sporting Events Tips for Highlands
- •Beach races and triathlons close their courses early — spectators driving in on race morning should approach from outside the course loop.
- •Fishing tournaments concentrate at the marina for weigh-ins, usually late afternoon; that's the spectacle worth timing a visit around.
- •For beach volleyball and surf contests, the action moves with the tide and heats run all day — check the event schedule board on the sand rather than the website's start time.
- •Parking in Highlands: Free street parking in town. Twin Lights has free parking. Bay beach areas have small lots.
