2010 Island Creek Oyster Festival

Summer may be over, but you can still fit in at least one big beach bash. At this annual event, you'll find two tents housing live bands, Island Creek-themed cocktails, lots of good eats, and an interactive tide pool and fishing tourney for the wee ones. Notable Boston chefs work their magic on thousands of oysters, day boat scallops, and Duxbury razor clams. After the 5-8 p.m. small bites segment of the event, Joe Bachman and the Crew crank out the tunes while Greg Reeves of Green Street Grill fires… Show more up the late-night grill for burgers, dogs, and good times. Proceeds benefit the Island Creek Oysters Foundation. -- Milva DiDomizio, Globe Staff
