It only took five minutes for those participating in Sand Cay Beach Resort’s Easter egg hunt to find every prize.

Separated into age groups, children of all ages searched the back property of the resort for the multi-colored eggs. Some were even lucky enough to find golden eggs.

Following the egg hunt, the kids played in bounce houses, met the Easter Bunny and enjoyed lunch with their families.
