Florida

Not quite a carnival, but definitely a party. You're invited to join street performers, musicians, artists, locals and tourists alike as they come together to watch the sun sink into the Gulf of Mexico.

Street performers provide the warm-up entertainment as everyone waits for the sun to go down. Prepare to be amazed and amused by banjo players, drummers, sword-swallowers, circus cats and even a dancing dog.

Performers aside, there's a huge outdoor gallery of arts and crafts by local artists and designers. With a choice of everything from beaded jewellery and hand painted T-shirts to stunning sunset photography and wooden sculpture, you're sure to walk away with a fitting memento of your evening.

As you wander home, you'll feel like you've been somewhere special. Only the great thing is that it happens every night.
