SunStream Beach Team Visits The 24th Annual SandSculpting Championship

November 16th, 2010

The 24th Annual SandSculpting Competition took place this past weekend on Fort Myers Beach. We got a chance to talk to some of the sculptors, get an inside look at how they go from flat sand to amazing pieces of art, try some of the amazing food and talk to some attendees!  What an amazing weekend it was and congrats to the winner, Brad Goll from Austin, Texas with his “Headache” sculpture… it was truly amazing!

Couldn’t make it down to Fort Myers Beach to check it out for yourself?  That’s okay, the SunStream Beach Team hit the beach and got some really great footage… check it out!

November 11th, 2010

What a great day it turned out to be! The weather was a little windy in the morning as well as a little chilly, but as soon as the sun starting to shine we were removing all of our layers and were ready for a beautiful fall day in Southwest Florida! We had over 40 paddlers show up and another 14 that signed up but may have been scared off a bit by the early morning chill, and didn’t show up, but all in all it was such a fun day! Check out the video and see what you missed out on if you didn’t come out to show us your kayaking skills!

Head over to the Promenade Farmer's Market for a taste of Cape Coral

The farmer's market, which takes place every Thursday from 5-8 p.m., will allow locals and visitors to wander through the stands and check out the fresh local produce, seafood and bakery items.

The Twilight Promenade will also be a great place to do bring home some delicacies that would make perfect holiday gifts. Merchants will be selling gift baskets, imported cheeses, cigars and honey products that can make great stocking stuffers and small tokens of appreciation. 

Enjoy a meal of fresh seafood with vegetables while wandering through the market and don't be afraid to take some produce back home with you. So while escaping from the cold and relaxing at MarinaVillage, take a moment to pick up some treats and gifts before heading back home
