Do You Want To Build A Castle With Sand Castle University Now?

I'll probably earn a few bucks if you purchase something after clicking on the links in this post. We aren’t talking about enough for a mansion or yacht but more like chocolate and wine. And if I mention a product, I may have gotten a sample and possibly a cash payment. Remember that all Thoughts, Ideas, and Ramblings are 100% my own and may not represent your experience.

My family and I always look for fun and unique things to do on vacation. Sand Castle University fits that bill and is a great family activity in Gulf Shores!

Do you want to build a sand castle and aren't sure how? Or do you want to learn how to create better sand castles? That's where Sand Castle University steps in. Sand Castle University teaches you and your friends/family how to build a sandcastle and shows you right on the beach! If you learn best by doing, this class is for you!

Here's a fast version of the class my family took together:

To begin, we set up our pails in a circle.

To start, we then all claimed a bucket to make our castles.

After claiming all the spots, the instructor demonstrated and explained what we needed to do to create the perfect sand castle, including how to use each set of tools.

Lastly, after everyone finished, we took group photos, and the clean-up lasted about 15 minutes. It was amazing how fast the time went by!

After your class, you will receive an email with a list of the tools used in the class, your FREE time-lapse video, and some local recommendations!

What do you think of our final products?

Now, what did we all think of this? It was amazing! I can only recommend Sand Castle University. As you can see, we all followed the same directions, and look at the emerging creativity! The adults had just as much fun as the kids! We had an amazing time, and I cannot wait to take the second class! Janel is an amazing teacher. Even in the event of accidentally caving in part of your castle (we won't say who did that), she fixes it, lol.

If you are in Gulf Shores, you have to call Sand Castle University and have Janel come out and teach you the fine art of building a sand castle. The best part is she comes to you! I look forward to seeing your creations!
