They had different lots set up with free trolleys which ended up being very quick and easy. When we got there, I was struck by the size. I really didn't expect it to be as large as it was. They had a kids area, arts and crafts, musical entertainment, and of course seafood. Fried clams, fish and chips, ceviche, seared tuna, grilled mahi mahi, oysters, calmari, you name it. The only thing I didn't like was that you had to buy tickets. Most items ranged from four to seven tickets, including alcohol. The portion sizes on most items were pretty good. If you simply went to sample everything, you would paying a lot, though. I kind of wish they would offer a smallish sample sized portions for less tickets. For non seafood people, they had hamburger and hot dog options, as well as the regular fair food like funnel cakes and ice cream. It started to become pretty crowded as we were leaving, so I would suggest to go early. We had a great time, and it was definitely worth driving out of our way for.

It's located in Downtown Jensen Beach and they close of the main street, and one street over so vendors can set up shop along main street, and the rides and stages etc are one block over. We walked down mainstreet and perused the vendors which were selling a wide range of interesting art, some clothing, jewelry, and some food as well. The carnivalish street has lots of activities for kids, and some more food and drink options as well. The stage is set up in a parking lot with some seats and room to dance. I thought it was well laid out and looked fun. I wasn't particularly wowed by Pineapple festival, but we don't have kids and besides the restaurants that we know and enjoy on the perimeter there isn't much for us after wandering the vendor lined main street. However we'll most likely be back next year to support the community.

In fact there was only one vendor there selling pineapple slush things and that was it! There was live entertainment which was great and several carnival rides. There was a great variety of fair food, however I was expecting pineapple flavored things and fresh pineapples for sale and that was not the case. Hopefully next year. The festival wasn't very large, we basically walked around the block. We went on few admission day and it was nice weather therefore we enjoyed the short walk but I would have been upset if I had paid to get in. Parking is awful.... there isn't any.

So after lunch I was looking forward to checking it out. The big fence surrounding it kind of perplexed me. As we circled around I saw the signs $5 per person and a line to get in. Too bad, not that I can't afford the $5 pp. it just left a really sour taste.. When I have attended in the past , almost always I buy something. The artists are missing out because of this now. With kids in tow (and the sour taste)we decided not to go

The best one was by Joseph's Market that had everything from cannoli to sandwiches. Hot items to pizza. We got a free photo from the cheese booth. The gal wasn't very happy to be working. We didn't even get told where to look or when the camera would be shooting. But a free photo is a free photo, I guess. I wouldn't recommend coming here for the money you pay. Instead go track down Joseph's in palm beach gardens or Boca... Sorry...save your $$ and gas.

It's only about a 12 minute walk really from any of the lots. We packed up. 4 chairs that we could put on our backs like backpacks and walk to Sunset. You get a wristband to enter and that was easy along with the scan of the tickets. There are 3 stages and the area is easy to walk thru. We were glad we had our chairs as no one wants to sit on the ground. I wish there were some healthy options at SunFest to munch on so I waited until I got home to eat. The weather was beautiful and I was thinking how I wish there were fireworks again! Have to think if I'd return - very on the fence about it.

The fair is located on Dixie Hwy across from Peninsula Coffee and Chuckles along the rail road tracks. It runs from Bridge Road to Venus Street, Admission is free but they were collecting donations to fund local programs. The event is hosted by the Hobe Sound Chamber of Commerce and produced by Howard Alan Events. You can catch a free shuttle bus at the Pine School but I was able to find parking close to the festival on the side of Dixie Hwy. The art for sale included sculpture, paintings, artisan jewelry, photographs, ceramics, wood, metal, and textiles. All of the artists are available to discuss their work. The festival also had food and drink vendors and other people selling plants and flea market items. The Chamber of Commerce was selling festival T-shirts. I saw earrings as inexpensive as $5 to large scale sculptures that were many thousands of dollars. Of course I love anything with mermaids, sea turtles, and flamingoes. The art definitely leaned toward the tropical here. There was a lot of beautiful jewelry that caught my eye as did the carved birds and purses made from book covers. I really liked how there was a variety of items to choose from. This is a dog friendly event and well behaved leashed dogs are welcome. Aside from looking at the art, dog watching at art festivals is my second favorite activity. The weather was beautiful and it was so nice to enjoy the festival and fresh air. It is too late to attend this years festival but mark you calendars for this fun February event when it comes back next year for it's 22nd year.
