Jupiter's dog beach crowd gets a holiday afternoon that works for kids, too.
Friends of Jupiter Beach hosts the Paws by the Sea Holiday Market on Saturday, Nov. 28, from 2 to 6 p.m. at Perry Como Pavilion in Ocean Cay Park, 2188 Marcinski Rd., Jupiter, according to the group's holiday market page and the Town of Jupiter's Ocean Cay Park facility listing. The nonprofit says the afternoon celebrates its 32nd anniversary.
What's planned
The listing describes a festive beachside afternoon with:
Local vendors (the page thanks a long vendor roster that includes food, crafts, coffee and pet-friendly booths)
Photos with Santa on the beach, with limited availability and a pre-order form on the event page
A self-guided beach cleanup
Seasonal fun for the whole family, including dogs
Admission is not listed as a ticketed charge; the page presents it as an open community afternoon. Vendor questions go to [email protected].
Where and when
When: Saturday, Nov. 28, 2026, 2–6 p.m.
Where: Perry Como Pavilion, Ocean Cay Park, 2188 Marcinski Rd., Jupiter
Cost: Free to attend (Santa photo packages may have a fee via the pre-order form; check the FJB page)
Ocean Cay sits along Jupiter's dog-friendly beach stretch, so leash-up rules still apply from the car to the sand under Town of Jupiter beach rules. Bring waste bags either way.
