4-2-2014 Palm Beach Harbor- Old Port Marina and Sandpiper's Cove

This was such an amazing marina. The yachts (can't call these babies boats) are meticulously maintained and huge! When we checked in the three lovely gals that run the marina- Sue, Susy and ????? what's the funny gals name? Oh yeah, Kim. Anyway we felt so welcomed! It was an absolutely perfect marina. They even give you a bottle of wine that has the most beautiful label- in a gift bag and another bag to use on your travels-  and coffee in the morning!  Kim said the wine was to calm you down after cruising through the channels  (if we went through all the bridges we would have needed a gallon of wine!) or sea and the coffee was to wake you up after a too fun night!! The docks didn't even need the bumper thingys because the edges are so well padded. The docks were the best built we have seen- Steve was impressed that the screws were perfectly inline- straight as an arrow!! They are so generous- Sue gave me some material to help us navigate the Keys and told me how to pronounce Islamorada so I wouldn't embarrass myself! (The s is silent)

The happy hour in their gorgeous restaurant and bar was from 3-7- my kind of place! The food was to die for. We split a poached pear /feta.baby greens salad that was amazing and the lightest crunchiest classiest fish and chips- sorry no picture! The presentation was so great when we saw it at the other tables that we changed our mind on what to order! The flakiest mildest freshest fish! Our waitress was darling and sounded exactly like Miley Cyrus- I heard her speak before I saw her and figured she was here on one of the megayachts!

Anyway, cheers to everyone that makes this marina so special! (the guys in the deli were wonderful too!)
