Sanding Ovations in Treasure Island, Florida, is a new family tradition for the week of Thanksgiving! We have enjoyed the event the last two years while family comes to town in November. Mark and I love it when family stays in one of our favorite condos in Treasure Island, FL, called the Island Inn. The sand sculptures are within walking distance (a 2-mile beach walk) of the condo, and it makes for a great walk at sunset or anytime during the event.
Sanding Ovations November 27, 2021 – We walked over around 6:00 PM, just after sunset. I love how they creatively lit up these beautiful sculptures for nighttime viewing.

Sanding Ovations November 25, 2022 – We walked over around 4:00 PM, and the lighting was a bit harsh with sunset coming soon – I enjoyed seeing it better lit up at night.

















Island Inn Tiki Bar – Another bonus to staying at Island Inn is the on-site Tiki Bar by the pool. There is a public beach parking area right next door – so if you want to pop in for a drink and a sunset – you can! The food and snacks are simple but not bad and perfect for a day by the pool.
We have enjoyed hanging out with our family on the beach with this amenity that many other condos don’t have. I am so happy we found this local gem!










Sanding Ovations and Island Inn are worth checking out if you are ever in the area. The event also has live music, vendors to check out, and many other restaurants and bars within equal distance. Treasure Island is our favorite beach town, and this is one of the extraordinary things they do each year.
