Lucinda "sandy feet" Wierenga has won a modest amount of international fame with her sandsculpting skills, competing at major events all around the world since 1987. She invented the job of sandcastle instructor and has offered sandcastle lessons, team building exercises and beach billboards to South Padre Island guests and residents since 1990.
Lucinda and her husband/fellow instructor José run The SandBox Inn, a pet-friendly vacation duplex on South Padre Island.
Anubis Morrison has been giving lessons since 2019 - and he just keeps getting better at it. He is one of our traveling instructors who will come and meet you at different parts of SPI.
When not giving lessons, you can find Anubis making music, on the trail or working at the village -- he is the hardworking guy who maintains and repairs the sculptures -- hurray!
