February on the Bolivar Peninsula is all about festive fun, family tradition, and coastal charm!
This month’s highlight: The legendary Mardi Gras Parade in Crystal Beach, plus plenty of local happenings to make your getaway unforgettable.
Mardi Gras Parade 2026: The Main Event
Route: Starts at Camp Margaritaville RV Resort, travels along Hwy 87, ends at Gregory Park
The Mardi Gras Parade is a beloved Bolivar tradition! Expect a full day of fun—colorful floats, fire trucks, golf carts, live bands, and families lining the beach road. Kids can catch beads, candy, and all kinds of parade bling. Arrive early to claim your spot—many families set up BBQs and lawn chairs along the route for a front-row seat to the action!
Insider Tip: After the parade, head to a local restaurant or venue for live music and a feast of boiled crawfish—a true Gulf Coast Mardi Gras tradition.
