Sundays in the Sand - Quite possibly my favorite of the Summer Concert Series here on the Coast. This FREE concert is held at the Avila Beach Golf Resort every Sunday from July to August. It's on the big grassy area over looking the coast. It's a stunning view and TONS of fun! Concerts usually start around 1pm, so get there early to ensure you have a nice spot of your own. Food and drinks are available for purchase, but they are totally cool if you want to bring your own. Check out their Facebook page for upcoming shows. http://www.facebook.com/event.
