Once again we shall unite the adventurers, thrill seekers and professional chillers our annual float day. This is a day dedicated to celebrating summer and all the joys of the festive season. Forget about the world, grab your swimwear and something (anything) that floats and head over to the island. Two beautiful float days are united again into one day of absolute bliss.
This event is free to everyone arriving with their own boats <3
THE FLOAT CEREMONY
This year we will be having a floating ceremony which begins at the top of the island where floaters ride the incoming tide back to the beach bar. A prize will be awarded to the fastest floater - the more you chill, the faster you float (its science-ish/its science I promise). Registration starts at 13:00 and the float race commences at 15:00

PRIZES
Awesome prizes to be won for the most outrageous floatation device - the crazier the better. Judging criteria will be based on size, style, relevance and originality.
1st Prize for Fastest Floater & Best Floaty
