Beach Town Tourism Website

Design project for Epicodus - 2019-0226

Web advertising campaign to promote tourism in a beach town. A web development project for Epicodus.

Practice setting up a web development environment and design and build a responsive website, while applying web design best practices.

More appealing to younger generations--but without making some of their most loyal, often retired, visitors feel left behind.
Feel like a "fresh take on the old beach towns you know and love. New and fresh, but still familiar and comfortable.
Make the quaintness of a small community feel "cool" and "hip" again.
Tap the weekend-trips market; encourage people to spontaneously drop by on a whim
Pages that are both desktop and mobile friendly. They know those younger generations especially use many different devices to browse the web.
Homepage of the mobile version should feature tips on accessing their town more prominently than the desktop version; they think people may try to look up directions on their phones as they're traveling to the town.

An area to feature all the fun events the town hosts. (They mention an art weekend, farmer's markets in the summer, a small folk music festival, and a crab cookout, and more.)
Directions to the town.
An area to feature local attractions and things visitors could entertain themselves doing.
Prominent pictures of the beach, and beautiful surrounding landscape.
