What’s happening on the Emerald Coast this weekend?
It’s going to be a great weekend for fun in the sun here on the beautiful Emerald Coast. Get out and enjoy a picturesque golf course, take a scenic bicycle ride along the coast, rock the night away at a spirited concert, or make a difference to a local charity. If you don’t see any events that tickle your fancy, there’s always a gorgeous beach waiting, whether you want to relax on the shore, go for a swim, reel in the catch of the day, or take a ride on the wild side with area watersports, these beaches offer a wealth of opportunities for your enjoyment.

Come rock with JT Hodges at his HarborWalk Village concert this Sunday! His original sound and infectious melodies make him a force to be reckoned with in the country music scene.
Have fun out there, and as always, keep it beachy!
