Those are my two favorites. Would have to flip a coin between those two.

When they have live music and a good crowd it's hard to beat.

It’s incredible how well it’s run and is a monstrous place since the did the additions ears ago. Have y’all ever seen the liquor room? Holy shite

I'd say yes. Does anyone know the exact spot where the water starts to get clear, along the shore line, in the GOM? It has to be several miles west of Gulf Shores right? If anything, at least Flora-Bama feels like you are actually on a beach that goes into a main body of water.

Destin is definitely better than Orange Beach but i think Flora-Bama is better than AJs.

If you consider best to be where trashy people congregate to get drunk and have meaningless chatter...

Haven't seen this, unless you're talking about the liquor store they run across the road.

Water and sand has been pretty great in OB/Perdido the last few years compared to the cesspool that is Gulf Shores

It’s downstairs and supplies all the liquor to the dozen or so bars in the place

Key West has so many good pubs. I’m partial to Kevin’s Irish Pub bc that dude is a cool mofo with a great bar.

Probably, if you're considering music and fame and people watching.

As far as bars that are merely good bars adjacent to the beach - Chiringo.
