When you visit Fort Myers Beach, you’ll immediately be drawn in by the seven miles of sandy beaches that give the city its namesake. Relaxing on the beautiful beaches here is the best way to unwind during your vacation, but drinking on the beach is even better! Fort Myers Beach has bars and restaurants all along the coast that are right on the water. Visiting a Fort Myers Beach bar is all about stunning ocean views, live music, and happy hour. Our Edison Beach House hotel is conveniently located near some of the best bars you can visit during your vacation. So, join us and find your private paradise in Fort Myers Beach. 

Sunset Beach Tropical Grill 

Sunset Beach Tropical Grill and The Playmore Tiki Bar is a great place to stop for happy hour. From 3:00 – 5:00 p.m. every weekday, they have discounts on appetizers and drinks. Share a plate of cozy conch fritters with the group or order pizza by the slice. You can also order $5 martinis during happy hour and save on other discounted drinks. Sip on the summer breeze martini as you take in the views of the beach. And if you miss happy hour, come down for drinks and late-night entertainment instead. 

Junkanoo on the Beach

Junkanoo on the beach is an excellent place to stop for a cocktail on the beach. We recommend coming during happy hour from 3:00 to 6:00 p.m. on Monday through Friday. Get discounts on beer, wine, and well drinks during this time. You can also get appetizer specials for the table, including wings, firecracker shrimp, and jalapeno yucca fritters. 

Shucker’s at the Gulfshore

Everything to love about a bar in Fort Myers Beach can be found at Shuckers. Delicious seafood, incredible beach views, live music, and, most importantly, drinks. The oysters here are a must-try, and the outside seating is the perfect place to watch the sunset. The beach bar here was established over 100 years ago and has remained a local favorite ever since.

Doc Ford’s Rum Bar & Grille

For fresh seafood in a great atmosphere, visit Doc Ford’s. Experience waterfront dining while you listen to live music. Serving delicious Caribbean-inspired food for lunch and dinner, Doc Ford’s is a must-stop. And make sure to order their signature island mojito to go with your meal.
