Swordfish Lookout’s Guidebook
Casual bites
Some of my favorite spots to grab a solid bite to eat when I’m enjoying my time at the beach.
If you were to walk in a straight line from the house to the water, you’d end up at this spot. The tiki bar sits on a pier with unobstructed views of the sand, sun and waves — it doesn’t get more ‘at the beach’ than this. One of my favorite places to walk and grab a margarita or retreat to when things get a little hot on the sand.

A new favorite of mine. The food here is great and the atmosphere is exactly what you’re looking for in a local, casual beach bar. Nothing overly fancy & no pretense — just good eats in a wonderfully eclectic environment.

Good eats within walking distance of the house. Lots of great outdoor seating. On game days, the perfect marriage of being at the beach with tuning into the game.

From fresh seafood & hand cut steaks to scratch-made pasta dishes, Havana’s has something for everyone. They’re also pretty allergy-friendly, just ask.

Sightseeing
フォート・フィッシャー・ノースカロライナ水族館
900 Loggerhead RdJust north of Swordfish Lookout — you could walk there, but probably better to attack on a bike or in the car. A neat local boardwalk setup, littered with shops, spots to eat, and, depending on the time of year, a little outdoor carnival. A nice place to go wonder around with the family. Grab a bite to eat, some local desert, and maybe a cocktail or two — all nestled between waves crashing on the beach and some solid people watching.
