Baytowne Memorial Day Weekend Celebration

The Village of Baytowne Wharf is celebrating with style with two nights of family-friendly events. Start the fun Saturday, May 27, 2023, with a concert featuring the Forrest Williams Band and Pherrel Williams performing a variety of music ranging from southern rock to country to blues from 7-9 p.m. On Sunday, May 28, 2023, bring the kids for more live music, plus activities just for them, and a fireworks show. Kids will love face painting, balloon animals, and lawn games, and everyone will love the live music performed by the Trest Richerson Band.

Spa Day

No matter how much fun and excitement you pack into a Memorial Day beach vacation, you came for rest and relaxation, too. Treat yourself to some total relaxation this Memorial Day with a trip to a local spa. There are several day spas scattered along 30A where you can relax your cares away with a treatment like a mani/pedi, facial, body scrub or wrap, and more. End the day completely relaxed and recharged. Some spas even offer treatments that cater to men and their unique needs, so the men of the group can get some vacation pampering, too.

The Beach

Historic 30A is all about the beach. Swim, sunbathe, take a walk or run, spread out a blanket and plant an umbrella for a Memorial Day beach picnic, or to sit and read while the waves provide the background noise.
