The Flora-Bama is my all-time favorite place to grab a bushwacker. Usually I'll start at the Flora-Bama - order a bushwacker and head out to walk the beach. Watch for a blog post soon with a video and recommendations for Flora-Bama. The Flora-Bama Yacht Club is across the street and the best place for lunch or dinner. They have a huge outdoor deck and beach area so you can relax on the sand and listen to music from local and visiting musicians. Below is a quick video from our last visit.
The Yacht Club offers local Island Time Oysters and they participate in the Oyster Shell Recycling Program. The program recycles oyster shells from restaurants and gets them back into Alabama waters, enhancing oyster production among other benefits. Here's a video with more information on oysters and the Island Time Oysters served at all 3 Flora-Bama locations.
Our Recommendations...
Start at the Flora-Bama and enjoy some beach time. You can grab a drink and head outside to sit by the water or walk the beach.
Order a bushwacker from the Flora-Bama and add a floater. You'll want to do this before you eat and then spend time walking and working up an appetite for lunch or dinner at the Yacht Club.
Start off your meal with the grilled oysters at the Yacht Club. They're amazing. Then, we recommend the blackened triple tail and dirty rice - it won't disappoint!
