Snook Inn, Waterfront restaurant on Marco Island, US
Snook Inn is a waterfront restaurant on Marco Island, Florida, set along the Marco River with both indoor dining rooms and outdoor seating areas. The outdoor section includes a covered Chickee Bar built right at the water's edge, as well as open decks that face the river.
The Snook Inn opened in the 1980s and over time became the most recognized dining spot on Marco Island. Its focus on seafood has stayed constant since the beginning, anchoring it as a longtime fixture on the island.
Live music plays every day at the Snook Inn, covering both lunch and dinner hours, with local and visiting musicians performing regularly. The outdoor Chickee Bar has become a gathering spot where people come as much for the music as for the food.
The restaurant can be reached by boat, with docking available right at the property for those arriving from the water. Those coming by car will find parking nearby, and both covered and open seating areas let visitors adjust to the weather.
Dolphins regularly swim close to the dock and are often spotted from the outdoor Chickee Bar during a meal. This happens often enough that many guests come back hoping to see them again.
