Food Scene

This is our go-to favorite. Can not go wrong at Tortugas. It's gotten a little more crowded since it's been discovered, but still a favorite of both locals and tourists.

Can't walk here, but worth the quick drive. If you go, the Yard Bird is the best chicken sandwich EVER. Great outdoor space if you have the kiddos with you.

Great for breakfast and can't beat the proximity to the cottage. Best spot for an afternoon drink, you can't get any closer to the ocean. But you'll probably want to find somewhere else for dinner. Just sayin' ...

Prepare for a wait, maybe a long one. But I promise, it will be worth it. You can sit at the outdoor picnic tables and have a drink while you wait.

Drinks & Nightlife

Definitely a bar, but pretty decent food and great beer selection. And, with about a 1 minute walk, you can't beat the proximity to the cottage.

If you're up for a drive, or perhaps a beach without people, there's lots of sand and sea down the Island. Also a better place to find beach treasures!
