PORT CHARLOTTE, Fla., April 12 — The Charlotte County Fairgrounds in Port Charlotte, FL, will be transformed into a giant Nautical Flea Market and Seafood Festival for three days this coming weekend, April 16, 17 and 18. This year's theme is "Bargains Galore" and the event is a mecca for buyers and sellers of all things nautical.
The three day festival features hundreds of vendors as they exhibit and sell their nautical related merchandise and services. In today's economy, the Marine Flea Market provides an outlet for the marine industry and private individuals to sell overstocked as well as new and used marine equipment at a fraction of the original retail cost. Many boaters, fishermen and divers can find valuable items for their maritime lifestyle at bargain prices and the best value for their dollar. The Charlotte County Nautical Flea Market and Seafood Festival is the answer for buyers and sellers alike. A wide variety of items being offered include fishing rods, reels, lures and lines, antique collectibles and maps, teak furniture, tournament gear, nautical art, crafts and jewelry, marine artifacts, boating apparel, taxidermy and fish reproductions, diving equipment, marine accessories and parts and floating docks. A selection of new and used boats is also being presented by boat dealers and individual boat owners.
Additionally, the event features healthy, delicious seafood and three days of live music by local musicians to enhance the festival atmosphere.
The hours of the festival are Friday 4 pm to 9 pm, Saturday 10 am to 9 pm and Sunday 10 am to 6 pm.
