Bugaloos
Casual, beachfront restaurant in Five Cays – come during the day for beautiful views over the bay or come on the weekend for live music in the evening. Unique outdoor seating with tables around trees and some picnic tables are even placed in the water if you want to get your feet wet. Go for a long stroll out in the sand at low tide. Come here before or after a day at Sapodilla or Taylor Bay.
Cabana Bar @ Ocean Club East
Relaxed beach / pool bar by day offering casual beachside dining at night. A great place to kick back and enjoy a drink or sit down for a decent meal as the sun sets without having to fuss about reservations or what you are wearing. Features chilled out live music 3 times a week - check out Elroy Simmons on Mondays, Gordon Lightbourne on Wednesdays, and Dwayne Thomas on Friday evenings.
Da Conch Shack
Feet in the sand, picnic tables under palm trees, turquoise water steps away, friendly staff, the conch man, and even a ring toss game - there is perhaps not a better beach bar on the island to simply let time pass. Kick back with a few (strong) rum punches and enjoy live music Sat or Sun afternoon - or for an entirely different feel, go for their well known Wed night party, featuring the We Funk Junkanoo band, a fire dancer, and a DJ.
The Deck @ Seven Stars
Overlooking Grace Bay Beach, by evening the Deck is more an outdoor beachside restaurant overlooking a beach than a beach bar serving casual food. With live music three nights a week (in season), a great option for a lovely dinner for those where spending as much of your TCI holiday with a view of Grace Bay Beach is your top priority.
Froggies on Daa Beach
Perhaps what Provo felt like years ago, Froggie’s is about as close to a beach shack as you can come these days. Far away from the activity of Grace Bay, escape to Blue Hills - past the Conch Shack - and enjoy local food, cold beers, and on some Saturday mornings - Davonte Missick or another local musician playing some tunes.
Hemingway’s @ The Sands
A casual dinner vibe, generally with more lively energy than you will find at other restaurants, plus sunset views from their pier-like patio seating. A night at Hemingways will vary based on the crowd but with live music on Tuesdays with the vocals of Julian Garland and Fridays with the renowned guitar skills of Quinton Dean don't be surprised if you find yourself up to dance for a song or two as the evening carries on.
Noah’s Ark Beach Club
A floating tiki bar in the middle of the ocean about 15 minutes away from Provo – accessible only by water taxi, jet ski, or boat. Idyllic spot, great vibes, quality food, and a full bar (albeit pricey drinks). Chill experience most of the week, DJ + crowded party on Sunday. Lots of celebrity sightings. In the words of DJ Khaled, ‘I wanna go where Drake goes’
Omar’s Beach Hut
Get here on Saturday or Sunday afternoon and enjoy the reggae island vibes of Stanley Roots from 1-4pm. On the bay beach in Five Cays choose to sit on the expansive deck or if it is high tide, this is where you get to sit on a picnic table with your toes in turquoise water. With a great and reasonably priced menu of your island favorites including some damn fresh seafood, buckets of beer and good drinks, take a break from Grace Bay beach and come here for a wonderful, lazy lunch.
Rickie’s Flamingo Cafe
Going to Rickie's is practically like saying you are headed to the beach. Shoes are optional and you can enjoy the ocean view from the tables or grab some cold beers and takeout and set up on the beach (beach chairs for hire too!). One of the few places on the beach run by locals - enjoy the laid back, truly island feel. Nothing moves that fast and that is the point. Check out some of the local vendors at the Cultural Market and enjoy the varying local musicians that pass through some afternoons and evenings.
Somewhere Cafe
Kick back on the beach after a snorkeling session in Coral Gardens or catch an epic sunset most nights, Somewhere Cafe lights up at night with live music three nights a week with Julian Garland, Barbara Johnson, and the Seabreeze Band as regulars.
