Kick off your Fourth of July at the Village of Baytowne Wharf inside Sandestin Golf and Beach Resort, where the whole family is invited to an evening of patriotic fun, live music, and a jaw-dropping fireworks show reflected off the glittering lagoon.
The festivities run from 6 PM to 9 PM, featuring face painting, kids crafts, balloon sculpting, and a DJ Dance Party in the Events Plaza. As dusk falls, grab a prime waterfront spot to watch one of the most scenic fireworks displays on the Emerald Coast launch at 9:15 PM — bursting over the water with the surrounding shops and restaurants glowing in festive red, white, and blue.
The event is free to attend and set within the charming brick-lined streets of Baytowne Wharf, where you can enjoy dinner at one of the waterfront restaurants before the celebration begins. It is the perfect patriotic night out on Florida's Emerald Coast.
