Country to Coastal offers a journey across Makuri Islands picturesque rural areas and then onto the sandy shores, with a balanced mix of rolling terrain and flats. The scenery is as calming as it is dynamic, with rice paddies, coastal paths, and rustic charm everywhere you look.
With rolling hills early on, expect punchy attacks from climbers and rouleurs trying to gain time before the coastal flats. Rouleurs who can maintain a steady pace will thrive here, while sprinters need to conserve energy for the last flat segment. If the pack remains together near the end, sprinters will have an advantage for a fast finish.
