Nick’s on the Bay Still Fresh After Fifty Years

Nick’s on the Bay (aka Nick's in the Sticks) is famous for having the freshest seafood around.

They get all of their mullet, crab, shrimp, and flounder right out of the Choctawhatchee Bay and the gulf. The gulf provides an endless supply of fish right off the boat. The Nick family takes pride in serving the finest seafood - not worried about how pretty they can put crab on top of grouper, but ensuring that it’s the freshest and tastiest grouper you will ever have. 

Freeport

Freeport is located just north of the bay and miles from the beach, but it's still South Walton, and is poised to grow fast in coming days.

Freeport has its own natural beauty and quirky charm that makes it as much a part of our community as our neighboring beach towns. Nestled in the northeast corner of Choctawhatchee Bay between Alaqua Bayou and the Choctawhatchee River, the sleepy rural town has ample waterways and wetlands for outdoor lovers, colorful characters, and a history rich in folklore.
