Bar by boat

The Pelican Bar, Jamaica

Visitors to this Jamaican watering hole could end up feeling slightly the worse for wear before they arrive, rather than the morning after, thanks to its location off the coast. The unusual bar is the creation of a local fisherman, Floyd Forbes, who dreamt one night of a bar built on stilts, above the water.
The original bar was destroyed in 2004 by Hurricane Ivan, but rebuilt. Patrons who make the 20 minute boat journey can enjoy a cold beer and some of Floyd's legendary fried fish before taking a dip.
