Celebrate Shoreline! Sandcastle Building Contest Aug 20

Sandcastle contest Aug 20 at RB Saltwater Park

Get ready to dig in! Bring the entire family to the Sandcastle Competition at Richmond Beach Saltwater Park on Sunday, August 20.

With a little imagination and a lot of sand, Richmond Beach transforms into a series of sandcastles and sculptures. Judges will vote for the top entries in the "Adult/Family/Group" and "Kids 12 and Under" categories plus a “Crowd Favorite”!

Free to participate! Contestants must provide their own tools, buckets and shovels. Prizes will be awarded to the winners.

Spectators will find participants using sand, water and any other natural materials found at the beach to construct their castles and sculptures. Contestants will be judged on their creativity, originality, total use of their assigned plot and use of natural materials.

New this year

Contestants and spectators are encouraged to fill the beach and sky with kites. Everyone young at heart is invited to come celebrate! Fly a kite (or a few) or just take in the scene!

Food and entertainment

Participants and spectators will also enjoy a beach barbecue and live steel drum music.
