Summertime and sandcastles are an Imperial Beach tradition. For one year only, the Sun & Sea Festival Committee honored Imperial Beach’s love of sandcastles as Sandcastle City August 13-30, 2021. San Diego County’s largest sandcastle competition was replaced by the largest sandcastle ever built on Imperial Beach sand. This massive sandcastle was built at Portwood Pier Plaza by the multi-award-winning professional team and hometown favorite, I.B. Posse and remained on display for several weeks.
This event was funded by the County of San Diego Community Enhancement Grant Program.
