★★★★★ 5.0 Morgan Chandler · Feb 2026

Came by for souvenirs and seashells - because it was 20° outside. Very friendly and had a good selection of seafood. Definitely know where to come on our next trip to get fresh seafood for dinner.

★★★★★ 5.0 Kim · Nov 2025

Such a great place for seafood and souvenirs. The red snapper and shrimp were awesome Loved my GOA hoodie I got from there.

🔥❤️‍🔥 Best-Kept Secret in Mexico Beach! A true local favorite — we’ve visited for decades! My now-grown daughters still talk about coming here as kids to pick out souvenirs: puffer fish, shell bags, t-shirts, even hermit crabs — all while waiting on our fresh Gulf seafood, steamed to perfection. Triggerfish is my personal favorite, but you can’t go wrong with the fresh snapper, mullet, grouper, oysters, or shrimp — all straight off the boats! They’ll trim your fillets for home grilling or steam them on the spot. If you want authentic, old-Florida flavor and friendly local vibes, this is the place. 🌴🦪🐠

★★★★★ 5.0 Rick Marrier · May 2025

We stopped here for some souvenirs, and we were not disappointed. They have a large selection of items. They also sell seafood, which we didn't know, and will pack it in ice for travel. The staff was very friendly and helpful. This area was practically destroyed in 2018 from Hurricane Michael, so it's nice to see it being rebuilt.

★★★★★ 5.0 T J · Jan 2026

This place was so cute and the staff was friendly, they had a souvenir we were looking for. The seafood and establishment smelled clean and fresh. We noticed the steaming oven. We will definitely return to try steamed shrimp.
