This week were tagged in a video posted to Instagram by Beach Shack Bottles and Taps, a beer and wine bar located in Raleigh, North Carolina. About 100 miles from what I assume is the closest beach in Surf City, that doesn’t keep this local bar from exuding a beach bar atmosphere. Inspired by their trips to Hawaii and the Caribbean (specifically Shoal Bay East in Anguilla), the owners decided to create their own “island state of mind” in Raleigh.
In the description of the video they posted to Instagram, they included two hashtags which really exude what this blog and beach bars in general are all about – “friends to family” and community. Thanks, Beach Shack Bottles and Taps, for reminding us that you don’t have to be on a beach to appreciate the beach bar bums lifestyle and why we fell in love with our favorite beach shacks in the first place.
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!
