Love & Gumbo!
|
We’re ready to feel the love for warmer weather! This time of year can be rather cold to our northern friends, so we suggest giving the gift of a sunny beach vacation to your sweetheart. Love is always in the air, especially when the smells of delicious gumbo are heating up. The end of the month brings the beloved annual Gumbo Cook-Off back to our community. This fundraiser, hosted on February 28 by the Special Events for Mexico Beach, promises to be a great time with good gumbo, live music, free beads, and much more. Come celebrate your love for sunshine and good food this month in Mexico Beach, Florida. |

The Most Wonderful Time of the Year!
There is an old legend about the sand dollar and its association with the Christmas holiday. The sand dollar symbolizes peace, unity, and resilience, as well as good luck. We want to wish all our readers a very Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays.
Let’s Show Our Thanks!
It’s the month to give thanks, and all of us here are so thankful to you, our loyal readers, who continue to show your love and support for Mexico Beach. During this month, we hope you can look back and enjoy all the good that you’ve experienced over the years, and we hope some of those memories include trips to the beach. We are grateful to live in such a beautiful destination and try not to take it for granted. Wishing you a Happy Thanksgiving.
The Month of sky painting!
|
October brings a new set of sky paintings, better known as sunsets, here to the beach. The colors are rich in pinks, oranges, purples, and yellow hues. It is one of the better times to be on the beach, with the majestic colors, and you can often have the beach all to yourself. Between watching your team on the big screen and running errands, sometimes you just need to pause and take in the small, joyful moments between the busy ones. Our sunsets offer some great views to help remind you to enjoy life and that it’s OK to slow down. |
