The fourth annual Beach Ball Festival takes up residency on the sand on 9th and Ocean this Sunday.

The festival, brought to you by nightlife impresarios, Tommy Pooch and Alan Roth, will feature all manner of fun in the sun. There will be competitions ranging from tug of war to dodge ball as well as live performances by Pitbull and Trina.

Yes, it’s true we live in a city of sun, sand and palm trees, and while you may believe that Miami is the end all be all, ask any surfer and they’ll tell you that when it comes to catching some waves this place is severely lacking. Well, bust out the sex wax and prepare to get super stoked, dude. This week’s Road Trip is (almost) all about you. Almost, because aside from the mondo waves, Rincón, Puerto Rico is an excellent getaway for the whole family and it’s just a short economical plane ride from the Ft. Lauderdale Airport.
