The Surf Bunny's Guidebook
Food Scene
Get your friends together and get your party on. Probably the best place for day drinking, hanging out on the bay on a party raft or table. The people watching never gets old. The food is okay, but the drink selection is great. Excellent for night life and dancing, bands, DJ's.

Oldie but goodie, located 2 blocks North from the condo. Not the greatest looks-wise, but they have great specials, and good food. Their oysters are good, and not expensive. Their franchise fries with gravy is a local favorite and quite addicting. It's a good vibe of mostly locals. The bar staff has been around for years, they serve good, strong drinks. Not watered down like some other places. Sunday night, they have a DJ and dancing at 10pm.
