The Guinness world record for the largest bikini parade was achieved by 357 participants at an event organised by The Gold Coast Bulletin (Australia) on the beach in Surfers Paradise, Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia.
Guinness World Records also recognized the world record for the largest bikini photo shoot; it involved 3,090 participants for an event organised by Huludao Municipal Goverment, on Longwan Beach,Huludao, Liao Ning Province, China.
Participants traveled from as far away South Dakota, Alaska and Maine to be in the record-breaking parade.
The Bay County Tourist Development Council came up with the idea to promote the area and get more tourists to the beach.
Parade organizers are donating $1,000 (...?!) to Beach Care Services, which provides short-term emergency assistance to people in need who live on Panama City Beach.
