A local favorite, Halloween on the BOOlevard at the Village of Baytowne Wharf is a must. Families and kids can enjoy trick-or-treating, face painting, and costume contests — all within a coastal, festive atmosphere.

Halloween night sunsets over the Gulf are something special. Imagine the sky turning orange and purple as the sun dips below the waves — the perfect backdrop for your costume photos!
