To get there you have to take a 20-minute boat ride to this rustic establishment in the middle of the ocean. Once there you can sunbathe, swim in the shallow ocean water, drink a cold beer and eat some fresh lobster or fish (order food ahead of time).
Not a great swimmer? That’s okay because the water is only waist deep. The atmosphere at Floyd’s Pelican Bar is truly a local one. Most times Floyd is just hanging out, drinking beer and playing dominoes with his friends.
The experience is made all the more surreal thanks to the mixing of salt- and freshwater from the sea and the Martha Brae River; the freshwater ‘floats’ on the saltwater, so you not only swim through green clouds of phosphorescence, but alternating bands of cold and warm.
The property boasts one of the prettiest white sand beaches for miles. A stream winds lazily to the white sand beach that shelves steeply into the water. Guests enjoy the best of both worlds, fresh and sea water.
