Sandcastles Galore


August 8 is the date of the official competition of the U.S. Open Sand Castle event at Imperial Beach. Construction begins on the intricately designed and usually massive sand sculptures at 9 am. Judging starts at 2 pm and once the tide moves in at 4 pm many of the creations begin to erode. Besides viewing the frantic and fun activities on the beach as the amateur and professional teams work against the clock, there's a huge street fair with live entertainment.
