In case you haven’t noticed, there’s a crisp chill in the air that will last through this first holiday weekend of December.  Now I don’t know about you but the coldness helps me get into the Christmas mood and if you’re looking for something festive to do this weekend, you’ve definitely come to the right place.

First, Port St’ Joe’s Christmas on the Coast celebration will begin tomorrow with a special Holiday Farmer’s Market in the morning opening at 10:00am .   Then, at 5:00pm, the annual Christmas Tree lighting will take place in City Commons Park followed by the Lighted Christmas Parade. 

Also, the Mexico Beach Christmas Celebration of Lights will take place on Sunday December 6th.  Gather your family and friends in Sunset Park to enjoy carolers, candlelight and candy. 

Can’t make it over to the Forgotten Coast?  That’s ok, make your way to Panama City Beach for the inaugural Run for the Redfish 1/2 marathon, 5k and Kids Fun Run.  After the race stick around Pier Park and enjoy getting pet photos with Santa Claus! 

Maybe Panama City Beach is a little too far?  No big deal, journey to the HarborWalk Christmas Parade in Destin where you are sure to be lit up by the Christmas spirit.

All of these special Christmas events enrich our lives and help to make the Beaches of Northwest Florida a beautiful and friendly place to visit.  Take a look at our Forgotten Coast condos to find a perfect place to spend Christmas at the beach.
