The Flying Bridge restaurant is quintessential Florida dining. From its origins as an authentic cracker cottage — the simple architectural style of the state’s first settlers — to the fresh grouper sandwiches of its kitchen, the restaurant serves up an experience you can’t find outside of the Sunshine State. In warm weather, the restaurant’s open-air feel provides fresh gulf breezes and spectacular beach views, while Island Grand’s meandering waterway runs right beneath the restaurant. Open daily for lunch and dinner from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Major credit cards accepted.
