On the same day, for those who love a good run, there’s a 3-Mile Fun Run at Crab Trap, right by James Lee Park Beach Access. It’s a great way to get some exercise while soaking in the beautiful coastal views. Meanwhile, at Lakuna Links, you can try out Permanent Jewelry, a unique experience that’s definitely worth checking out.

Imagine digging into some freshly boiled crawfish while enjoying live tunes! Sounds like a perfect Sunday plan, right? Also on the 31st, the LSBA Annual Meeting & Joint LJCLSBA Summer School will take place at the Sandestin Golf & Beach Resort — a great opportunity for those in the legal field to network and learn.
For a more relaxed start to your Sunday, swing by 311 Main St for a delightful breakfast. It’s a cozy spot to fuel up before diving into more weekend adventures.
