This competition also draws admirers from the community. Some get tips on sand sculpting and join the competition.
It's fun for kids, says sculptor Isabel Valaika.
“And it's really cool to make stuff out of sand because you're usually just seeing it on the ground,” she said.
Competition organizer Michael Anderson likes the fact that the sculptures are temporary.
“Even though castles made of sand fade into the sea, I think that that's the appeal, it's so transient,” says Anderson.
Rusty Croft modeled his sculpture on a whimsical character in a children's book. He says these creations are made for the moment.
“They're not supposed to last. It's kind of like life. It's here and then gone, so enjoy it now,” says Croft.
The sculptures will be gone, but many of these artists will be back next year, carving new creations in the sand.
