Wash Away 2023 and Dip Into 2024 at Flora-Bama

Flora-Bama Polar Bear Dip 2024

After a long night at the Annual New Year's Eve Bash, thousands of people come to Flora-Bama on the morning of New Year's Day to wash away 2023 and dip into 2024! We were blessed with perfect weather conditions this year to make for a more enjoyable splash in the water and thousands showed up ready to celebrate a new year together. This year marks the Flora-Bama's 40th Polar Bear Dip and many customers expressed the number of years they have been attending....5, 10, 15 and some even more! The tradition brings you a dip into the water, then a free plate of the traditional New Year food items like black eyed peas, collard greens, ham and cornbread and of course a draft beer after your plunge. Every year on New  Year's Day, thousands join together at Flora-Bama where everyone gathers on the sand behind Flora-Bama and right at the strike of noon, we all plunge into the Gulf together. Best of all? This event is FREE and open to all ages! Post plunge, the party continues throughout the day and evening with live music on three stages and joyful camaraderie among patrons. Save the date for New Year's Day 2025!

The greatest weekend of the year is nearing, the iconic, the one and only, the Gulf coast's greatest beach party...MULLET TOSS! Always the last full weekend of April, this event brings in thousands of people to celebrate together and that's right, toss fish. Patrons gather around a 200 foot long course to watch participants sign up to grab a mullet and throw it as far as you can. The contest is simple, but the weekend is anything but..... think a three day long party filled with sunshine, sand, cocktails (bushwackers of course), live music, bikini and hot body contests, debauchery and oh the lifelong memories you'll never forget, or maybe you will.
