It isn’t solely about sand art at this festival (Although we do think that is the coolest part), but also about the live music, vendors, food, and local community who come together to celebrate. Over the 17-day celebration, you will have plenty of time to see a live show with some fantastic artists, explore the area, eat some pretty amazing food, and of course soak up some sun on the beach.
