It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas on St. Pete Beach. The grouper are shifting to shallow waters, cold snaps bring swells in both surf and population, and temps are dipping into the frigid upper-fifties. So, in honor of our unique little Holiday Season and our first birthday, we felt a party was definitely in order.
After noshing on some Wildwood BBQ in the courtyard, visitors were in store for a killer show from Entertainment Revue; who, with ages ranging from 6-18, proved a perfect balance of vocal talent and ridiculously cuteness. And never one to miss a Christmas soiree, post performance tree lighting was courtesy of the Big Man himself.
Then there are these guys…
Festivities concluded with a fire on the beach and a showing of Elf

Thanks to all who made it out, check back for New Years Eve’s plans!
