This place was nothing short of amazing. We went to dinner with our two teenagers, one is a strict vegetarian. We sat out on the deck area near the docks/marina but nonetheless it is was a perfect spot with great food, greatmusic, great service, there is nothing about this place that any of us didn't enjoy.
One of our favorite things about the place was all of the marine life that inhabit this particular area that seek ( and find!) comfort & safety in the water.

Nestled along the dock between a couple hotels. Skippers is a nice spot to get a bite after a day on the boat. Either step off the boat on the dock or make a plan to drive up. Great food, friendly service, and a nice view. We sat outside on the patio next to the bar. It was not too busy when we went but it looks like it could get real busy on a Saturday during the season.
We even saw a manatee in the canal!
We plan to go again sometime soon.

Just had a few cocktails. Atmosphere is awesome. The bar was clean and the bartender was great.
