Sweeping ocean views and fresh seafood come together at the SOBE Seafood Festival. During the celebration of aquatic cuisine—which also marks the beginning of stone-crab season—ten local restaurants set up shop in the culinary garden. These eateries serve up signature seafood dishes in miniature dining areas while full bars pour Hess Select wines, cocktails, and beers. After filling their bellies, guests can take in chefs' and mixologists' demos. But the fest isn't an adults-only affair—a kids' zone entertains tykes with bounce houses, obstacle courses, and educational seafood exhibits, and live music by area bands sets the soundtrack for family-friendly fun. A portion of the event's proceeds go toward Community Initiatives Foundation.
