Halloween in Palm Coast is truly something special. Every year, families and neighbors come together to make the night memorable—block by block, street by street. As a Flagler Beach local and dad, I love seeing our community light up with costumes, candy, and laughter. Here’s my 2025 guide to the most festive trick-or-treat destinations, whether you’re new in town or a lifelong local.
1. Sugarmill Plantation: The Mega Event
If you’ve never experienced Halloween in Sugarmill Plantation, put it on your bucket list. This isn’t just trick-or-treating—it’s a full-on community event, with closed-off streets and hundreds of families celebrating together. People park all the way down Old Kings Road, and once you’re inside, you’ll see decorated houses, friendly faces, and buckets of candy everywhere. Be ready for crowds—you’ll probably see more than a few creative costumes (and maybe even some judges handing out extra sweets for the best ones).
Local tip: Arrive early to grab good parking, and consider bringing a wagon for tired little ghouls.

2. Flagler Beach ‘Bridge Streets’: Lantana, Avalon, Palmetto
Just over the bridge in Flagler Beach, you’ll find a string of streets that truly embrace the Halloween spirit. Homes along Lantana, Avalon, and Palmetto light up with decorations—from haunted yards to classic jack-o-lanterns. This is where you’ll catch generations of locals handing out treats and chatting on their porches. The family-friendly vibe and ocean breezes make this area a go-to, and adventurous kids might even earn some “secret stash” candy for the best costumes.

3. C Section of Palm Coast: Where Halloween Feels Like a Block Party
Known for winding canal views and a true neighborly feel, the C Section is a hidden Halloween gem. Streets like Cotton Court, Christopher Court, Cherokee Court East and West, Cochise, Cottonwood Ct, Charles Ct, Clearview Ct, Clinton Ct S, Chelsea Ct, Cunningham Lane, Covington, Coral Reef Ct North, Cloverdale Ct N, Cardwell Court, Comanche Court, and Cedarview Ct turn into a parade of costumed kids and porch parties. Many homes really go above and beyond—expect full treat bags, props, and maybe a few spooky surprises.
Local tip: The canals make for a great backdrop for photos—don’t be surprised if residents invite you to snap a pic!
4. B Section off Belleaire: Easy, Safe, and Fun
For a laid-back route that’s perfect for younger kids (or anyone tired of the crowds), the B Section just off Belleaire offers well-lit streets, friendly neighbors, and enough treats to fill up a pillowcase. This area is under the radar, so you’ll find a manageable flow of trick-or-treaters and lots of opportunities to chat with local families.
