Instagram Monday Weekly Worldwide Beach Bar Tour

News of beach bars reopening in the Caribbean in preparation for the new travel season triggers feelings of ambivalence. Typically occurring in the December to April time frame, the high season for travel in this region is also a reminder that it’s about to get cold in my hometown. With no plans for a winter escape in the works yet for this season, I’ll have to rely on updates from my favorite beachfront watering holes to stem the onslaught of cold about to head my way. So yeah, I’m happy for you but I sure wish I was there with you among white sand instead of white snow! If you’d like your images to be featured on the blog, make sure you’re following @beachbarbums, use the #beachbarbums tag and/or tag us in your pics. If you have a travel blog or personal website, I also try and post links to those whenever possible. I occasionally give away free stuff to some of my favorites so that’s pretty cool, I guess. Plus, the blog gets a BUNCH of views per day and the article is shared to all of my social media sites – you’ll never find a more dedicated group of beach bar lovers anywhere! If you’d like me to write an article featuring just your photos, send me an email at info at beach bar bums dot com and we’ll talk it over. Don’t forget to follow us on Instagram! It’s the most fun you’ll have staring at your phone. Cheers! View this post on Instagram Good Night from the SSS, one more day until we reopen.

Thanks for the Memories – The Beach Bar at the Island Beachcomber Hotel, St. Thomas

Posted by Tom W. on Oct 11, 2018

Thanks for the Memories – The Beach Bar at the Island Beachcomber Hotel, St. Thomas

I don’t know that the Island Beachcomber’s beach bar actually ever had a name. Located on Lindbergh Bay on St. Thomas in the US Virgin Islands, the beach bar at this well-worn but respectable resort became one of our favorite spots on the island. About a 5-10 minute walk from the airport, it also served a function as the island’s unofficial greeter, a favorite place for locals to take their guests when they first arrived on the island. Staying at the other end of the beach at the Emerald Beach Resort, the beach bar at the Island Beachcomber was a short walk away for our family. Perched on the immaculate beach with the resort’s Old Florida style and island greenery providing the backdrop, the beach bar looked like it would be more at home in the Florida Keys than in the Caribbean and maybe that’s what the appeal was. It exuded a certain kind of Keys charm, one that can only be felt by someone who has spent time on those islands. Eschewing the bright colors normally found splashed on beach bars in the Caribbean, the Island Beachcomber’s beach bar instead relied on blue and cream hues to put its customers at ease. The beach bar’s extensive use of wood, stone and marble added to its natural appeal. While it exuded the feeling that it could withstand a hurricane, it didn’t let its seemingly formidable walls stand in the way of making your cares, and the larger world with...

It’s a week for the letter A in our Instagram Monday post but unlike the scarlet version, this beach bar take is much more pleasant. In Antigua, Wadadli is the favored beer while the only BS needed is bikinis and sandals. Anguilla and its beach bars continue to make their impact felt with updates from Waves, Blancahard’s Beach Shack and the Sunshine Shack. Plus, choosing a beach bar in Cruz Bay in St. John,...
