Celebrate the joys of building sandcastles and flying kites with the entire family at Doran Beach. Amateurs and experts are welcome at this fun and colorful event. Bring your own kite or purchase one from local vendors. Bring your own sandcastle building tools or borrow ours. Remember, a spring day at the Sonoma Coast can be sunny or chilly, so dress in layers and bring a jacket. The park can fill up quickly, so consider arriving early and enjoying this beautiful coastal park before the event starts. For more information, contact John Ryan at john.ryan@sonoma-county.org.
