Your Go-To Beach Bar

Stinky's Bait Shack is the only place on Highway 30A where you can grab live bait, fishing gear, and a good drink all in one stop. Located on a coastal dune lake in Dune Allen Beach, it's part bait shop, part beach bar, and part hangout spot.

Start your day with coffee, biscuits, or grits, then gear up for fishing with help from the friendly staff. Whether you need bait, tackle, or a souvanier, Stinky's Bait Shack has you covered.

As the day rolls on, stick around for cold beer, cocktails, live music, and a game of billiards. The Shack regularly hosts local favorites and visiting artists, making it a go-to spot for both laid-back afternoons and lively nights.

Local place. Live bait. Cold beer. Billiards Room. Good people. That's Stinky's Bait Shack.
