I'm visiting from out of town. What can I do while I'm in Wauchula for the Party?

You can kayak, canoe, or paddle-board down Peace River. Bring your own equipment as rentals are limited. For a fee, you can sift for sharks teeth in the Peace River via SIFT Tours, operating Monday-Saturday for ages 7 & up. You can take a 20-minute drive to see Soloman’s Castle— for a fee see the three-story, 12,000-square foot castle made of old aluminum newspaper printing plates, a replica of the Alamo and a huge 16th century galleon. All is the handiwork of one man. You can visit W Main Street and enjoy delicious bites at Java Cafe or Giovanni’s Main Street Kitchen. You can visit the Cracker Trail Museum in Pioneer Park, Zolfo Springs.
