"Off the Wall is a great spot on Cane Bay.
On a recent trip, we enjoyed Off the Wall twice for lunch. The location is right on the water and the bar has a great selection. The food was excellently prepared. The staff was attentive and offered suggestions for drinks and food. The BLT was amazing."

"Lovely seaside bar and grill tucked away on the northwestern side of the island. The Surf n Turf burger was good. I popped in for a late lunch. The place looks like a great time during the sunset and evening and will go back. Very close to a beautiful snorkeling beach."
