I’ll be there as well and also would like some ideas. A poster in the 30A thread said there is a fish taco place called Finns. Menu looks pretty good.

Things to do... the zoo is small but my kids liked it because you can feed giraffes and other animals and get right up close to them. We had fun on a party boat catching 10" lane snapper. Next time we taking a private ate boat though.

Ripleys Believe it or not and Wonderworks are both cool places for any age. Spinnakers is a cool outdoor place with good food and drinks/live music, it’s family friendly outside of spring break season.

The kids had a blast at Dave & Busters and the burger I had there was surprisingly good. Go rent a party barge and head over to Shell Island for a relaxing, lazy afternoon.

eta: really enjoyed Firefly's too. Our best meal as well.

The yard milkshake bar. Reserve 2 hours out of your day for this.

Im in Seagrove now. Saw an older restaurant I'd like to try on 98.

Its called Terrace Restaurant...I wonder if it's good. Looking at the website...a 30 dollar fried oyster plate is going to be a NOPE with Stinky's nearby.

Just a recap. Finn’s for supper the first night because it was quick. Recommendations were spot on. I had the fish tacos and they were delicious. Can’t beat the price. Only negative was they gave my daughter cheese quesadillas instead of nachos. She’s like her mama.

Last night we had Cici’s Pizza because my son was starving and he’s a senior in high school so he’s used to places like that. Pizza was crap but, you can’t beat the price especially for a family of four.

Tonight we’re going across the street to Firefly. Any recommendations? We were going to eat at Ocean’s so we didn’t have to leave Edgewater but, I convinced everyone else that it was better. Wife mentioned Pineapple Willy’s since that’s where she went when she was a kid. Told her it’s just for tourists and I’m fine with it if she really wants to go. I told her she could get back to the pool quicker if we went to Girefly and she was all in!

Firefly was really good. I had the grilled Mahi. It was a really small fillet but very good. Wife had the salmon with potatoes and she said it was delicious. My son and I ordered some tuna bites off of the sushi menu as an appetizer. They were really good. My son ordered the Devil’s Advocate tuna roll and it was awesome. This was my first time eating sushi and I was pleasantly surprised st how good it was. We went during the 5:00-6:00 sunset meal. I would definitely recommend Firefly to anyone. Really good meal.

We’re here right now too... went to dees hang out tonight and the grilled grouper was very good. Have 2 and 5 year olds who were assholes, wouldn’t eat... so I think tomorrow I’m going to go to the seafood market and cook. No point in dealing with the crowds of kids are going to act out

Just got back. Only decent meal we had was Barefoot Grill. Food was pretty good, guy playing guitar, and kids swam in the pool while the wife and I had some drinks. Very nice sunset atmosphere.
