👨👩👧👦 Family Events Tips for Margate
- •Shore family events cluster activities in short windows (character appearances, contests, crafts) — screenshot the schedule so you're not hunting for a posted flyer with kids in tow.
- •Face painting, balloon, and craft lines are shortest right when the event opens.
- •Pick a visible landmark as a meetup spot when you arrive; boardwalk events get dense enough to lose sight of each other fast.
- •Parking in Margate: Metered street parking closer to beach. Free parking on residential streets.
