Super cool. This reminds me of an event called Sea Sculptures I used to frequent in South Texas; it was always so cool to see bigger than life sculptures made of sand. I may just have to break out the ole bucket and shovel and start practicing, there's $500 to be had!
Great information. My name is Marc, and aside from my amateur sand castle building career, I also work for Bescover -- where we love all things B&B! It's truly a privilege being a part of your online community

Common areas are designed for casual living. The fully-equipped kitchen offers continental style breakfast with all the basics to allow you to serve yourself on your own schedule and at your own pace.
