Fueling up before and after a dive is crucial. Plus it makes for a happy diver. Listed below are some of our favorite spots to grab a bite or a cold one! Please keep in mind most places run on “island time” so hours and days of operation tend to vary depending on the season, power outages, rain delays, or someone needing to visit the BMV.
Polly’s at the Pier: Fresh breakfast, lunch, and coffee made daily at 8:00 AM right around the corner from the dive shop.
Rhythms at Rainbow Beach: A local watering hole for that after-dive burger, fresh fish sandwich, or cocktails right on the beach and only a mile from the dive shop.
Louie and Nachos: Tacos, salads, and cocktails are the favorites here. And the kitchen stays open until 10:00 PM most nights.
Smoke STX: Great BBQ for take-out or eat at one of their outdoor picnic tables! The smoked mac-n-cheese is a must!
