Hotel guests can take advantage of the lagoon-style pool, complimentary lawn games and can even dock their boat on the 1,600 feet of seawall for easy launching the morning of the event. Events throughout the weekend include the Captain’s Dinner on Friday, Sept. 18 at 6 p.m. offering light hors d’oeuvres and a cash bar, Plantation Redfish Classic from daylight to 5 p.m. on Sept. 19 – and while redfish is the primary quest, there will also be categories for trout and grouper.

Prizes will include first, second and third place for largest redfish, trout and grouper ranging from $3,000 to $100. A portion of all proceeds will go to benefit the One Rake at a Time Foundation which cleans Lyngbya, a harmful blue-green algae, out of Kings Bay through the dedication and hard work of local volunteers.
