Sand Sculpture Contest Watch Hill

Come join all the fun and bring your talented side to this year’s Labor Day Sand Sculpture contest on Watch Hill. Find splendid artistic creations of mermaids, sandcastles and much more on the shoreline of Watch Hill. This sand sculpture contest is a great way to celebrate the end of summer and leave your very own personal mark on Fire Island.

Watch Hill is a beautiful and quiet section of the Fire Island Seashore where you and all your friends and family can soak up the last few rays of sun and sea air before summer draws to a close. If you have an explorer’s or naturalist’s edge about you, then you may also want to consider staying overnight in Watch Hill’s beautiful camp ground area, and perhaps, some early morning bird watching. Hiking trails are also available if you are looking for some exercise and peace of mind.

Like most sections of Fire Island, Watch Hill is one of the most well-preserved beaches in the Northeastern region of the United States. And true to its form, it offers everything you would envision a summer well spent on the seashore of the Northeast to be; small town atmosphere, with a splash of night life, exceptionally delicious fresh-caught Atlantic cuisine, the sound of the waves and natural wooded habitat all coming together. That is what you can expect to find in Watch Hill on Fire Island.

With all the fun and excitement that goes on daily on Fire Island – with everything from fairs, festivals, and even the sand sculpting contest during Labor Day weekend on Watch Hill, no vacation could ever last long enough. Find your oasis of tranquility and natural beauty on Fire Island, with a summer-long or week-long rental home away from home.
