For those in the group who enjoy boating—or even for those who don’t—the Mexico Beach Marina & Outfitters is worth a visit and is only two doors away. Mexico Beach is often described as a sleepy little fishing village, making the marina and ship store a popular spot. Whether you're heading out on the water for fishing, regardless of your vessel type, the marina has everything you need: ice, fuel, bait, tackle, and a little bit of everything else. If you prefer spending the day lounging on the shore, the ship store offers groceries, sunscreen, and other essentials to enhance your beach day. You might even run into Luke Bryan's mom as she picks up her fishing tackle, since we know she enjoys fishing too!

Step into The Shell Shack—a beloved local institution in Mexico Beach, renowned for serving the best local seafood since 1965. This charming spot offers an array of fresh or steamed shrimp, fish, scallops, crabs, and oysters, all guaranteed to delight seafood lovers. Beyond its culinary offerings, The Shell Shack is also a treasure trove of coastal memorabilia, featuring a large variety of seashells, t-shirts, and unique novelty gifts. Whether you're a local or just passing through, our friendly staff will happily pack your seafood for travel, ensuring you can take a taste of Mexico Beach back home with you. Visit The Shell Shack for a quintessential taste of the coast and the perfect keepsakes to remember your trip.

    Well stocked kitchen and bathrooms. Great beach toys, beach chairs and even a beach buggy. The only negative was limited info on check out.

    This house far exceeded expectations. The walk to the beach was very easy, less than 3 minutes. We brought our own beach chairs, umbrellas, etc. but this place had it all and then some. The house itself is very spacious, clean and comfortable. We would definitely stay here again.

    This Location was a lot of fun. It’s very spacious and clean. The canal in the back was a great spot to park my Waverunners. Cindy was easy to get into contact with, and check in and check out process was rather simple and straightforward.

    We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful beach home! The house itself was stunning—bright, clean, and full of charming beachy touches that made it feel both relaxing and fun. We stayed with our family and grandson, and it was the perfect setup for making memories together.The amenities were excellent and made our stay so comfortable. While there was quite a bit of seaweed in the ocean early in our trip, it cleared out nicely before we left, and we were able to enjoy the beach even more. Overall, we had a fantastic time and would absolutely return!Oh…and Cindy was quick to answer all our questions. Thanks Cindy!

    Since 2022 my family has gathered in Mexico Beach area in remembrance of my mother who remains where scattered around the bay. The Sandy crab provided yet another unique experience for my love ones to come as one to enjoy fun, laughter and to share the love we all have for my mother. Thanks for sharing your home, it was great!
