Pro Tips

  1. 1.Request a table on the outdoor deck or by the windows for the best Gulf views,kids love watching boats and occasionally spotting dolphins while they eat
  2. 2.Visit during sunset hours for a truly magical dining experience that children will remember, typically 1-1.5 hours before sunset depending on season
  3. 3.The restaurant can get busy during peak dinner hours (6-8pm), so consider an early dinner around 5pm for shorter wait times with hungry kids
  4. 4.Bring a change of clothes or let kids explore the beach area before or after your meal,there's nothing like combining dinner with some sand time
  5. 5.Ask about the daily fresh catch specials, but don't worry if your kids are picky,the kids' menu has reliable favorites like chicken tenders and pasta

Best Time to Visit

Early dinner around 5-6pm on weekdays offers the best experience with kids,you'll avoid the longest waits, catch beautiful evening light over the water, and still have time for beach play afterward. Sunset dining is spectacular but arrives early as this is the most popular time.

What to Know

Moderately priced ($$) with kids' menu options available. Beachfront location means casual dress is perfectly acceptable,come straight from the beach! Parking available on-site, and the outdoor seating makes it easy for families who need a bit more space.

Seasonal Notes

The outdoor deck is especially enjoyable during spring and fall when temperatures are mild. Summer evenings offer beautiful sunsets but can be warm and humid. Winter months may have limited outdoor seating availability depending on weather, but the views remain spectacular year-round.
