About Nature’s Coastal Holiday

Our story began with a simple spark in 1997. From a modest display of 20,000 bulbs, we have transformed into a signature winter event boasting over 3 million brilliant lights across the scenic landscape of Azalea Park. Nature’s Coastal Holiday Festival of Lights remains a grassroots labor of love, driven solely by the dedication of volunteers. Every season, countless guests journey here to witness the wonder, fueled by the local Brookings-Harbor residents who donate their time and passion to keep the glow alive.
This is far beyond a mere display; it is our shared legacy.
