Did you know? The tradition of Easter Eggs

Colorful decorated eggs in a wicker basket.

The tradition of eating Easter eggs comes from Lent and pre-Christian celebrations. The egg symbolized spring and resurrection. Rabbits, associated with spring and fertility, became the Easter Bunny. Chocolate Easter eggs originated in the 19th century. Enjoy Easter at Historic Virginia Key Beach Park!
