On our recent trip to the Gulf of Mexico we decided to branch out and check out Pirate’s Cove. A beach bar not far by miles from where we were staying, maybe five or six miles, but over 45 minutes to drive to because of the all the bays and inlets.

It’s a laid back beach bar that was packed on the day we went. They are on the bay and I’d guess most motored their boats over there. They are famous for their hamburgers and their alcohol laced bushwhackers. We had one of each when we were there.

It has a funky vibe and is supposedly the inspiration for two beach songs. I don’t know if it’s true or not but the place is good and the songs are good so I’ll match them up but I’m not going to fight anybody over it. (Us photobloggers don’t fight.)

The first song attached to this place is Jimmy Buffet’s legendary, “Cheeseburgers in Paradise.” I will say that I would put Pirate Cove’s Cheeseburgers near the top of my list. They are not cheap, if you are looking for cheap go somewhere else.

The other song is Kenny Chesney’s “Bar at the End of the World.” Pirate’s Cover is definitely out in the middle of nowhere. I would recommend making sure your car’s navigation system is working. Even then, we made a wrong turn or two. We started out in Alabama, ventured into Florida, and then back to Alabama to get there.
