Ho ho ho, Key Biscayne: Santa arrives on the island | BeachCombings

Christmas is this week and there’s nothing quite like Santa’s arrival to set the holiday mood on Key Biscayne. One of the Island’s longest traditions is Toy Town’s annual holiday party, where Santa Claus makes his first official visit of the season.

Young and old alike enjoyed a jolly afternoon of dancing, face painting, sweet treats, and for the adults, even a little bubbly, capped off with photos alongside the Big Guy himself.

Toy Town founder Mary Tague’s family joins in for a Santa picture.

Dancing to holiday tunes!
