During the COVID-19 pandemic, with limited options for outdoor activities, I found myself drawn back to the beach—a place where I could reconnect with my childhood love for building. My family and I would spend hours creating sprawling sand structures, but we soon realized that the typical tools just didn’t cut it. We couldn’t build up, only out, and our creations, while fun, didn’t have the impact we were aiming for.

Determined to find a way to build the towering, intricate sandcastles I had seen professionals create, I turned to YouTube. There, I discovered that with the right technique and tools, building massive sandcastles was entirely possible. I started experimenting—buying materials from Home Depot, cutting and crafting my own tools, and refining the process. The results were incredible, and the joy of creating something so impressive was infectious. People would stop by, take photos, ask questions, and the entire experience was magical.

That’s when the idea for Mega Castles was born. I wanted to share this experience with others, to create a kit that was compact, easy to use, and affordable—so that anyone could enjoy the magic of building something extraordinary. Mega Castles is about more than just sandcastles; it’s about building memories, inspiring creativity, and breaking the mold in everything we do.
