KidQuest Cove

While parents explore hurricane prep, health screenings, and community resources, the kids get a world of their own. KidQuest Cove is the festival's family home base — a fenced, supervised play zone packed with an inflatable obstacle course, a bouncy house, and outdoor games built to burn energy and spark imagination.

But it's more than play. KidQuest Cove is also home to the Legacy Key — our scholarship and education zone. Every child who visits earns their Legacy Key stamp on their festival boarding pass and takes home a KidQuest Heroes coloring book, turning a day at The Bay into their first step toward "I Unlocked My Future."

What's Inside the Cove
