Food Scene
Dusty's is my "go to" for oysters. I usually go in the daytime and sit at the oyster bar where the best shucker works "Jim" will shuck your dozen raw in front of you. Ask for Jim and tell him Erin sent you!

They have award winning shuckers here, but I like the steamed clams! They make an awesome Bloody Mary with 2 huge shrimp!

This place gets quite crowded at dinner time, so expect to wait but it has a fun atmosphere and will be showing any sports in season.

This place is down Front Beach Road a good bit, but they have great food. It is right on the beach. I try to avoid Front Beach in the summer at dinner time because its so crowded. However, If you can make it for the Early Bird Special 4-6pm its worth it-- mostly locals and $2 beers. Order the Trigger Fish, it's always fresh & awesome and this is a great spot to watch the sunset.

Sightseeing
This yacht club is just over the bridge, so it is less crowded than most spots on the beach but is still on the water. They have an outdoor Tiki Bar and its very relaxing to sit and watch the boats come and go. St. Andrews has a farmers market on Saturday mornings on the docks and is a great spot to paddle board as well. You can rent a board there too. There's a few cute shops around this area. Antiques, thrift, coffee, smoothies, kettle corn, hot boiled peanuts and lots of fresh veggies!

Carousel has been around forever and is a very quaint little grocery. They have a surprisingly classy gift shop and a HUGE wine shop too.

Parks & Nature
This is a crystal clear creek with natural hot springs along the way. It is a bit of a drive but an amazing experience, you can see the sandy bottom the whole way. Not for very small children or older folks because you will need to get in and out of your canoe a few times. Bring a picnic lunch, after a soak in the hot springs there is a nice picnic area.
