Gnat's Landing

ST. SIMONS ISLAND. This eatery and watering hole caters to a casual beachcomber crowd with its delicious menu of seafood faves and mouth-watering mixed drink specials. Located in St. Simons' Redfern Village, the ambience may be lacking in high-brow bar accoutrements, but the service is excellent, the guests have a ball, and the expertly mixed drinks are thirst-quenching after a day of coastal activities. No visitor to the Georgia coast can pass up the famed $8000 margarita – so named for the cost of coming up with the mind-bending formula, not the bar tab after gulping several down.
