Local Eats: Where to Find the Best Seafood This Summer
Nothing beats fresh seafood in the summer, and when you're right by the coast, there's plenty to choose from. The local seafood restaurants around Northeast and Central Florida and Southeast Georgia are second to none, and our real estate agents know where to find all the best ones. Here are five you should check out this summer.
Best Local Seafood on the Coast
Palms Fish Camp Restaurant - Jacksonville, FL
6359 Heckscher Dr., Jacksonville, FL 32226
If you want seafood straight off the boat, head to Palms Fish Camp Restaurant. Everything is freshly caught, expertly prepared, and absolutely delicious. Start with an appetizer like:
- Coconut shrimp
- Conch fritters
- Gator bites
Then, for the most part, just ask what the daily specials are, and they'll bring you something incredible, straight from the ocean to your plate. Then finish with a slice of their homemade key lime pie, which you can enjoy while taking in a spectacular waterfront view. They also regularly have live music and other events, plus a fishing tournament in mid-July. And be sure to come on Mondays for Cash Pot Bingo!
Julington Creek Fish Camp - Jacksonville, FL
12760 San Jose Blvd., Jacksonville, FL 32223
For seafood with a southern flair, check out Julington Creek Fish Camp. Try some shrimp & andouille gumbo, with collard greens or smoked bacon butter beans, which you can enjoy inside or out on the patio with a view of the river. The restaurant is elegant but affordable, and a perfect spot for a night out in Jacksonville. Make your reservation online!
O.C. White's Seafood and Spirits — St. Augustine, FL
118 Avenida Menendez, St. Augustine, FL 32084
Set right on Matanzas Bay, O.C. White's Seafood and Spirits serves up fresh local seafood with historic charm. Housed in one of St. Augustine's oldest buildings, the restaurant offers waterfront dining just steps from the Bridge of Lions. Menu favorites include their crab cakes, shrimp and grits, and fresh catch of the day, all best enjoyed near St. Augustine homes for sale. Live music on the patio makes it an ideal spot to relax after a day of house hunting.
The Fat Snook - Cocoa Beach, FL
