Sea the World at the Sugar Sand Festival
While Ron and I were out on the boat on Saturday, we decided to drop by Clearwater Beach since it was the final weekend of the Pier 60 Sugar Sand Festival. This year’s theme was “Sea the World, A Journey around the Globe.” Fourteen master sand sculptors carved sculptures of famous landmarks and icons from every continent, using only sand, water and common household tools. All the sculptures had incredible detail, but my favorite was the Brazilian Carnival dancer. Another especially poignant sculpture, added after Paris’s devastating fire, honored the Notre Dame Cathedral.
Due to its growing popularity, the festival was expanded to 17 days this year, including nine nights of concerts and even a new ferris wheel. If you missed it this time around, be sure to keep an eye out for next year’s schedule on the event’s website. https://sugarsandfestival.com
