September at the beach usually means thinner crowds, with summer temperatures beginning to dip. But this month, we’re still feeling like a ‘cat on a hot tin roof’!
While it may still be hot, there are plenty of ways to chill out and have fun over the next few weeks along the beaches of 30A. We've put together a lineup of events you won't want to miss before the Fall festival season begins:
See a Show at The REP
The Repertory Theater in Seaside has live entertainment all year round, whether it’s musical performances, theatrical plays, or an interactive kids’ Improv Bootcamp! Check out their current lineup for Sept./Oct. 2023.
