Cocoa Beach is the nearest beach to Orlando, only about 45 minutes away. We go there for a week each Summer to our condo, and it's a great, relatively un-tourist spoiled place that even locals can enjoy. But for fifteen years now, the entire time I've been going there, I have been trying to find good restaurants in Cocoa Beach. Particularly seafood restaurants. I mean, come on, it's the beach! Each year I have high hopes I will find something, anything, that compares to the fish places I knew and loved in Myrtle Beach.
FINALLY, this year, I found somewhere. FISHLIPS is by far the best seafood place I've tried in
Cocoa.

It's probably the best fish place I know of anywhere near Orlando, actually. And I've tried everyone I've seen!

Right on the port, where you can see the cruise ships come and go to the Atlantic, is where it's positioned. Great, scenic location.
I actually went here twice in one week this year, my family and I liked it so much. I had the fresh fish skewers, by the way: grouper, scallops, and shrimp. Yum! It's a casual, "families welcome" kind of place, with good servers, live music on the deck and a busy bar.

Plus, ya gotta love this sign.

I tend to judge a place based on its crab cakes. MMMM.
Good, because I forgot to mention how good the crab cakes are here!
I tend to judge a place by signs like this!
