    Itinerary

    Most families on vacation struggle to find an activity everyone can enjoy together. We offer a unique experience your whole family will love and remember. We help families Create Memories in the Sand. Learn professional sand sculpting tips and techniques. The lesson is 2 hours and begins with a demonstration; showing tools and their usage, and you will learn exactly how much water to add to the sand to create a perfect mixture. Your family will be mentored through the process of pounding up sandcastle towers and creating a unique masterpiece - together. Your family will gain “SandCastle Success” with a sand castle standing approximately 3 1/2 feet tall, ready for photographs. Fun in the sand, newly acquired sand sculpting skills and a unique vacation activity are just a few of the reasons why SandCastle Lessons with Beach Sand Sculptures quickly became a ** #1 TripAdvisor Activity in Destin, Florida.**

    FAQs

    For a whole-day weather cancellation, you'll receive an email or text before 9 AM that day. Your coach may also delay the lesson by up to 30 minutes to allow bad weather to pass.

    Yes. Your coach will text you between 9 and 9:30 AM on the day of your lesson.

    Bring towels, sunscreen, a swimsuit, a hat, sunglasses and drinks. Dress for getting wet during your sandcastle lesson. Hats and sunglasses are especially important because the sand is very reflective.
