The Shrimp Festival features festivities, such as a parade, 5K run, pageant, food and craft expos, and the “Queen’s Ball”.  Proceeds from the event go to benefit a number of local charitable organizations.

“The Shrimp Festival has always been an exciting time on the beach, drawing a nice crowd to the the island for the festivities,” said Dave Parilla, owner, Beach Accommodations.  “We anticipate a lot of vacationers booking rental properties for this event, but want to let people know that we do still have beachfront condos and cottages available.  We have vacation rentals available on the North end of the island, near all the activities.  However, we also have rentals available further South for those who want to stay away from the crowds and just enjoy the tranquility of the beach.”
