Best Grouper Sandwich!!! All seating is outdoors and has a great island feel. Doubles as a marina/boat launch. This is where the fisherman and locals come to hang out and eat. Food is awesome and there's always live music, and free Bingo with a jackpot on Tuesdays!!!

Drinks & Nightlife

This is where all the locals hang out. Feeling of a local dive, but out back has the best view of any other place on the island. Decent food, live music, and accessible by kayak or boat.

Looks like a dive bar but believe it or not it's one of the best breakfasts in town.....and super cheap! Outdoor space, on water, good atmosphere. Another "locals" hangout!

Essentials

largest selection, your typical mainstream grocery store. Their store brand (Publix Brand) is top notch to any store brand I've ever had. Floridians love their Publix!!!! Try the Publix ICE CREAM! Better than any name brand!!! They will also cater to the customer....only want 3 buns? or half a loaf? They will open the bag an reprice the small serving for you. Great customer service.
