Food Scene

The Oyster House has a great dining view of the canal. They also have one of the best salad bars around. Try to head there early because they usually have a long wait.

Drinks & Nightlife

The Flora-Bama is one of the area's most well known hot spots. It usually has a few different bands playing at the same time, some indoor/some outdoor weather pending. The place is huge and usually has a big crowd. Parking can sometimes be difficult as they have limited spots. You must go once at least to see the atmosphere. You can also hang out until the next morning where they have mass outside on the beach. It sits between the Florida and Alabama line therefore giving it the name Flora-Bama.
