Best Beach Bar Where You Don't Have to Fight For Parking
Meaghan Habuda

I love the beach — especially beach bars and cold drinks. What I don’t like, however, is fighting for parking on the beach, which, thankfully, has never been an issue at Crab Daddy’s. With a killer Rum Runner, waterfront views of boats passing by and a comforting breeze, Crab Daddy’s and its bar stools are often my second home on Sunday afternoon. —Chris Fasick
