No matter when you visit Emerald Isle, there is something to discover, whether it’s a new attraction or checking out one of the upcoming events taking place in town. For those planning a visit in mid-March, something that needs to be on every itinerary is the Emerald Isle St. Patrick’s Day Festival.
