Fodor's Expert Review The Wharf

Dance near the water to mellow music on Saturday evening; when there's a wedding reception in the pavilion, the crashing surf and twinkling candles bathe the proceedings in an almost Gatsby-esque glow. For something less sedate, try salsa lessons and dancing on Tuesday after dinner; most Fridays morph into a wild 1970s disco night (after the free hors d'oeuvres served during happy hour). The legendary Barefoot Man (think a Jimmy Buffett–style expat) performs Saturday. The stunning seaside setting on tiered decks compensates for often undistinguished food and service. The Ports of Call bar is a splendid place for sunset, and tarpon feeding off the deck happens nightly at 7 and 9.
