OK – so it’s the local ‘tourist trap’ – but a good one! There are lots of restaurants, of course, and the requisite trinket and t-shirt shops
There are also several great beachwear outlets (we shop there!), Lori’s for your natural sponges, soaps and lotions (Mary’s favorite), and a ton of outlets offering boat rides, parasailing, fishing tours, and so much more.
The boardwalk overlooks the cruising and fishing boats and is lined with interesting shops and restaurants. Many restaurants have their own fishing boats that bring in the fresh catch of the day – that’s pretty cool to see.
Head south on Gulf Blvd from Sunsets On The Sand about 7 miles and it’s on the Intracoastal (east) side of the street. You won’t miss it HERE.
Parking runs about $2/hour.
