Mexico Beach 2016 Photo Contest Winners

As the saying goes, “A picture says a thousand words,” and there is no better way to share moments at Mexico Beach than by documenting them on camera! The 2016 Annual Mexico Beach Photo Contest was filled with entries that embody the relaxed spirit of life along the Unforgettable Coast. We love seeing everyone’s photos, especially the winners of this year’s photo contest! Below are the first place entries for each category. Be sure to peruse the galleries for a complete collection of first, second and third place recipients! Entrants came from all across the country, ranging from Mexico Beach locals to Texans, Wisconsinites, and Iowans!

Categories included Around Mexico Beach, Sunrise and Sunset, the Beaches, Fishing and Boating, People, and Flora and Animal Life. These six categories showcase the multitude of beauty and excitement that abound along the Gulf. From the local wildlife to the breathtaking sunsets, the people and, of course, the sugar-white beaches, all of the photos submitted this year are sure to leave you wanting to book a trip and experience Mexico Beach firsthand!
