Come out to Little Creek Alpacas on Sun., Oct. 18th from 1 pm-5 pm for our 2026 Season Grand Opening! Enjoy 22 alpacas roaming in a free-range setting where you can hand-feed them, a 2-acre pond you can fish in, a small white-sand beach filled with toys for the kids, and more! Don't miss out on our last Alpaca Beach Party of the 2026 season!
The 19th Hole will join us this year with their tasty menu items and delicious drinks, including the best lemon shake-ups around! Hickory Ridge Homestead will have Fluff the Angora rabbit (weather permitting), and will also be doing spinning demonstrations, so you can see how our alpaca fiber is spun into yarn! Quesal Puppet Troupe will be performing a special puppet show at 2 p.m., and The Toddy Pop Company will be joining us with balloon twisting & entertainment to make the day extra fun. Paint The Sky Blue will have a paint station where you can paint different wooden items (frogs, butterflies, etc.) for $8, which would make a great handmade gift for a loved one. DJ Megan will be providing our beach party tunes, and there will be several other artisans to shop with too - stay tuned for the full list of vendors!
Cups of grain to hand-feed the alpacas will be available for $5/cup, and we'll have all of our alpaca products for sale in the red shelter. Fishing is allowed; our pond is stocked with mostly bass, but there are a few catfish in there somewhere. Bring your own fishing pole; we don't have any available. The beach has lots of toys for the kids to play with; this is a family-friendly environment. There is no swimming in the pond because I can't afford a lifeguard, but you can still get your feet wet and get water for your sandcastles. We do recommend dressing the kids in swim attire and/or bringing extra clothes and a towel, so they can get wet and have fun in the sand. We've added an additional play area away from the pond, near the food and vendor area.
No pets, no smoking, and no chasing the alpacas. Please be kind and respectful to others. Disinfectant hand wipes & hand sanitizer are available; there is no hand sink. We have a sprinkler and a baby pool filled with water for rinsing off. There is a handicap-accessible port-a-potty.**Please note: this is not a petting zoo. Alpacas are similar to a timid cat; they like to get to know you on their own terms. If you insist on trying to pet them before you've earned their trust, they will walk or run away from you - the more you insist, the more they will retreat. Be patient and let them come up to you on their own for the best experience. Hand-feeding grain always helps with the introduction and will entice them to come up to you.

FREE ADMISSION for all of our 2026 Alpaca Beach Parties! Donations are always appreciated but never expected.
