November Photo Contest Winner
Our winning photo this month is from Nick and Elaine G. from West Virginia. We think they captured one of the prettiest sunsets we have ever seen! They spend six weeks on Anna Maria in the winter. They dine at each restaurant several times during their time on the island and love the food and ambiance at all three!
For submitting the winning photo, we will be sending Nick and Elaine a complimentary $50.00 gift card to use on their next visit.
If you would like to enter to win a $50 gift card like Nick and Elaine just submit your photo to [email protected] or post it to one of our Facebook pages, Pinterest, Twitter or Instagram accounts by the last day of each month at 5 pm.
