beach bars
Sandy shoreline pubs
Beach bars are casual open-air establishments serving drinks—and often food—directly on or adjacent to a beach.
They range from simple thatched-roof shacks to upscale lounges, but share an atmosphere of sand, sun, and relaxation: We spent the afternoon hopping between beach bars in Tulum.
The term also appears as a compound: a beachbar vibe.
