Signature Event: 24th Annual Taste of the Beach

It’s back! The 24th Annual Taste of the Beach festival is back on the shores of Fort Myers Beach.  Down on Old San Carlos Boulevard, you will find the illustrious Taste of the Beach festival.

 

On Sunday, May 5, 2019, the festival returns for its 24th running.  To those new to the festival, this is a great way to sample everything the beach restaurants have to offer without breaking the bank.  Tickets are $5 per person -- with special package deals for those buying in groups! Don’t forget to purchase your food tickets ($1 each), to make sure you can grab a bite to eat at participating vendors.  However, do note that most food serving prices average out to $5 (that’s 5 food tickets per serving).

 

The event starts at 11:00 AM and will go on until 4:00 PM, or until food runs out - which could be sooner than 4:00 PM.  During this time awards will be handed out to restaurants. Categories include: Best Appetizer, Best Beef Entree, Best Seafood Entree, and even a People’s Choice award.  

 

Still wanting more? Still no need to worry.  What festival with great food is complete without great live music.  While information about the performers are yet to be released, you can guarantee that with 23 years under its belt the Taste of the Beach festival won’t let you down with music selection.  

The Fort Myers Beach Chamber of Commerce brings you this event every year, and it is a great way to start the warmer seasons of the year.  For more information look at the Fort Myers Beach Chamber of Commerce website and a link specific to the Taste of the Beach event.

Of course, you’d hate to rush into Fort Myers Beach and rush out during this day long even. So why not kick back, relax, and book your stay at the Best Western Plus Beach Resort just steps away from this event.  With the event ending at 4:00 PM you would have plenty of time to get back to your spacious hotel room, change your outfit and hop into the outdoor pool. A visit to this city isn’t complete without a visit (or even just a view) of its beautiful shores.
