Floyd’s Pelican Bar- Jamaica

Floyd’s Pelican Bar is made of driftwood, stilted on a sandbar ¾ mile off the shore. It is located in Parottee Bay on the South Coast of Jamaica, & is a tourist favourite for a cold beer and some lobster. Once you’re finished, swim around the shallow water.

The decor inside is made up of souvenirs from around the world, so visitors should bring something from home to add to it. Dolphins, Stingrays and Pelicans can all be found hanging around the sand bar.
