Residents hopped over to Turtle Beach on April 15 for the Siesta Key Easter Egg Hunt.
Families were greeted with a bunny-hug from the Easter bunny who wandered around the event. Eventgoers also enjoyed a mobile aquarium courtesy of Mote Marine Laboratory and Aquarium, tours of the county's emergency vehicles and face painting.
In fact, by the time the eggs had been placed for the Easter egg hunt, many children boasted bunny noses of their own.
"There's plenty for people to see and do," Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Ann Frescura said.
The event, which is put on by the Siesta Key Chamber of Commerce, grew from last year as organizers opted to host the event at Turtle Beach instead of Beach Access 5.
"Or course this space is larger than what we've had before," Frescura said. "It's a ready made family friendly venue."
