The Emerald Isle Parrot Head Club’s 8th annual Island Santa Bar Crawl will be held on Saturday, December 6, 2025. Proceeds from this event benefit Make a Wish of Eastern NC and make “wishes” come true for critically ill children in our local area. The EIPHC was recognized as a 2025 Wishmaker of the Year by Make a Wish ENC. The ISBC has raised in excess of $125,000 since it started in 2018.

We are very excited about this year’s event and hope that you will join us as we crawl into the holiday season. Here in Emerald Isle, our town motto is “Nice Matters” but truth be told there’s a lot of “crabbiness” in the world right now. We’re going to make it our mission to “Crawl it Off” and leave all the crabbiness behind!!

There are 7 PHANTASIC local stops for this year’s crawl. This year’s stops include: The Trading Post, Flipperz, The Thirsty Surfer, The Shark’s Den, Bar 1957, The Growler and Gaffer’s. The event will start at the EIPHC official home nest, THE E-CLUB and we will finish up the day’s events there as well. The Island Santa Bar Crawl will start at 1:00pm and will conclude at 5:00pm. There will be presentations for the event game winners and best costumes at THE ECLUB at the conclusion of the crawl. The party will continue with music, a photo booth and PHUN.
