Part of Lovers Key Resort, Flippers On The Bay is a hidden gem between Fort Myers Beach and Bonita Springs. All dining is alfresco. It's also more upscale than one might imagine after taking a gander at the restaurant on stilts; in fact it's a foodie paradise. The cuisine is global with ingredients and preparations that are local, Mediterranean, Latin, and more. Sitting on the Estero Bay, there is also a clear view of the Gulf of Mexico; a great spot to see dolphins and tropical birds. There is space for boaters to dock and dine, however, many call in both food and drink orders to go. Flipper's serves breakfast, lunch and dinner.
