Flora-Bama

Flora-Bama is a large beach bar situated directly on the Alabama-Florida state line with multiple levels and stages throughout the venue. The space features simultaneous live performances across several genres including country, rock, dance, and beach music.

The bar opened in 1964 as a simple roadhouse on the state border and gradually developed into a major entertainment complex. Over the decades it has weathered multiple hurricanes while continuing to grow and expand its operations.

The venue is known for its annual Mullet Toss Festival, where visitors throw fish across the state line as part of a Gulf Coast tradition. This quirky event draws thousands of people who come to participate in this distinctive local competition.

The venue can be accessed by boat through Flora-Bama Marina, which offers jet ski rentals and charter services for water transportation. Water-based access is the primary way to reach the location, so visitors should consider this route.

The venue operates its own radio station through iHeart Radio, broadcasting live performances and local music content around the clock. This broadcasting operation sets it apart as one of few beach bars with its own radio programming.
