Hundreds of people gathered smack in the middle of downtown Seattle this past Saturday, July 21, 2012 to enjoy a day at the beach! How? It was all made possible thanks to TACO DEL MAR®’s pop-up beach, which prominently took over Westlake Center Park and offered Seattleites an afternoon of beach volleyball, sandcastle building, live DJ action and a chance to catch some welcomed rays with their toes in the sand.
The event by TACO DEL MAR® was organized as a thank you to the company’s many local fans and to celebrate the sun that’s finally arriving in Seattle. All attendees received TACO DEL MAR® swag and coupons to try the restaurant’s latest summer sensation, a refreshing Shrimp Tostada.

“We had several hundred people stop by to enjoy the beach today, including a lot of volleyball players and teams who provided great entertainment for the crowds,” said Jennifer Nier, Area Development Manager with TACO DEL MAR®. “While TACO DEL MAR® has locations all over the U.S., we were founded here in Seattle. We were glad to be able to give back and bring a fun and unique afternoon to the city and our customers.” With palm trees waving in the breeze, the volleyball court transformed Westlake Park into an urban beach. More than 150 people took part in pick-up four-on-four volleyball matches. Even the pros got into the action, with participants from local sport leagues and club teams.
A healthy, fresh Mexican food option, TACO DEL MAR®’s menu is completely trans-fat-free; ingredients include long-grain rice, beans, tortillas, baked taco shells, and salsas and guacamole that are made fresh daily. In addition, every menu item is created by hand, right in front of the customer, allowing dishes to be perfectly tailored to individual taste.
