What is this?
Celebrate America’s 250th—or semiquincentennial, if you’re looking to impress—on Jekyll Island with two days of laid-back, family-friendly fun. July 3Head to Beach Village for a free afternoon carnival from 2–7 p.m., complete with bounce houses, carnival rides (including a mechanical shark), and face painting. July 4The Turtle Stage in Beach Village comes to life from 11 a.m.–5 p.m. with live music from Gypsy Joe, WharfRatz, and Squirt Gun. Spend the day enjoying the music, then make your way toward the beach as the evening sets in. At approximately 9 p.m., the celebration culminates with a fireworks display over Great Dunes Beach Park—our biggest and best yet.
