I’ve watched all the jaws movies a bunch of times. Even the bad ones. Jaws 2 after Brody gets fired for shooting up the beach, he was walking in his door and I never noticed this. Haha. Nice job.

I think they filmed it around Destin, FL which obviously didn't look much like Martha's Vineyard.

The old Holiday Inn on Navarre had posters from the filming along a wall in the lobby. When watching the movie you can definitely see a difference between the scenes filmed in FL and the ones filmed in NE.

Man I haven’t watched Jaws in probably 2 decades. Maybe I’ll do a little marathon this weekend.

It got taken out by Hurricane Ivan.

There is a Marriott Springhill Suites that sits at that exact location. That's where the film crew stayed.

Real hammerhead sharks circled the teen actors during the filming of one shot. Because the characters they were playing were meant to be in distress, the crew (filming from a distance) did not realize that the actors were genuinely calling for help.[33]


A friend of mine that lives in Gulf Breeze was a kid when they filmed it. He was in kindergarten. They went on a field trip to the movie set. He said they saw the replica of Jaws on the beach. He said it scared the shite out of him so much that he slept in his brothers room on the floor for about 2 years after that.

Yea, I’m surprised I’ve never noticed it. He even stopped and stared at it for a second. LOL.

Certainly one of the two they floated home on.

I see it. 2 toned shading like a shark's body, the wheel well looking like an open mouth. Half thought it was a shark looking thing at first.

Great fricking find.

Jaws 2 is underrated. It’s really not a bad movie at all.

Scenes were also filmed at the old Hog's Breath on Okaloosa/Santa Rosa Island.

AFAIK there is no single location for Jaws 2 stuff in the area.

The film pops up in local FB discussions off and on..

The function Brody is rushing to get to in the beginning of the movie is filmed in the old Holidome (RIP) on Navarre Beach.

As mentioned, it is obvious in that scene when the location switches to Navarre. He crosses a small bridge and the sand is suddenly white and the water way more blue..

Last time I was there I didnt run across any mention of the movie anywhere.
