Try the Ceviche. “Two worlds meet in the 15th century. The Spanish brought the sword and the lime, the Incas had the abundant fish from the Humboldt current. Through war, ceviche was born. We prepare our ceviche in the traditional Peruvian style with only the freshest ingredients from the land and sea. Citrus juice cures the fish, and the chilies, herbs, and vegetables enhance it.” ~ Turtle Kraals
Turtle Kraals restaurant also hosts turtle races three times a week during season but schedule changes in summer due to heat. Please call the restaurant for Turtle Race summer hours.
Is it the food, is it the view, is it the drinks… it’s all of the above!

Half Shell Raw Bar
Authentic Key West Fish House and Iconic Seafood Restaurant
One of the coolest places to eat and drink in Key West is the Half Shell Raw Bar, once a shrimp packing facility was established as a restaurant in 1972. An authentic Key West fish house and casual joint with picnic tables & waterside seating. You'll run into fishermen, locals and tourists hanging out, drinking, eating and telling fish tales of the day.
The location, it's near our resort and sits right on the Key West Bight Marina and serves up some of the best seafood, oysters, clams and peel 'n' eat shrimp on the island. Aww Shucks, it's one of our favorites one of the best raw bars in Key West!
