    Great bar with a cozy locals feel. Cheap beers with great specials. It's also dog friendly! There is no food but they let you order pizzas or bring your own snack which is a nice touch. The best part is there is a boat dock in the back so you can come by water!! Definitely check out the tipsy turtle if you're in the area!!

    Great locals hangout with cheap drinks and dog friendly. Go back the next day and see the same crowd. Wonderful waterfront area out back.

    This is an unexpectedly great restaurant right at the center of activity in Atlantic Beach. In my…read moreexperience, finding good seafood restaurants in and around Atlantic Beach (even including Morehead City - where there are a dwindling few) can be surprisingly difficult, especially compared to the pelagic bounty of most coastal Carolina towns. Bahia has probably the best food I've had from any of the current crop of Atlantic Beach places. Every dish I've tried so far has been excellent. One in particular needs to be highlighted. The crab dip is possibly the best I've ever eaten, anywhere. You need to try it. Pro tip: Be prepared for the generous amount of butter and oil in and on the food -- it adds to the richness and is definitely a good thing, but you'll want to be careful if you're planning on performing microsurgery or wiping your eyeglasses. There is unobtrusive but good quality live music, which is always a plus (and seems more well-considered than the solo guitar dudes repeatedly playing "Free Fallin" at the neighboring restaurants and bars). The air conditioning indoors does a heroic job of keeping the restaurant a relatively nice temperature, as well.

    Although Bahia seem casual, they do have a pretty good service and set…read more We tried 3 dishes and enjoyed most of them. - Crab dip was very very good. - hamburger was cooked medium rare (really) unlike many other restaurants. - meat balls we're not as satisfactory as the sauce was quite sweet. We will come back as we enjoyed it.
