"Being the only seafood establishment in the area that is located on the beach is what makes us stand out from our competition," said owner Alwyn Brown.

Their succulent grilled pineapple salmon offers a mouth-watering experience with each juicy bite with delightfully sweet and sour traces of diced pineapple. This is served with a hearty helping of creamy mashed potato and grilled vegetables. Their second must-try dish is known as the Sharkie's medley, which features grilled lobster fresh from the depths of the ocean, crunchy escoveitched fish and garlic butter shrimp that is loaded with herbs and spices for an explosion of flavour which may require divine intervention.
"Our partnership with Appleton Estate was established from the beginning of our venture. It is mutually beneficial, our customers love their products and we really appreciate them as our main sponsor. They have provided our employees with uniforms, gave us an amazing sign and completely renovated our bar. We also host a number of Appleton-sponsored events at Sharkie's," said Brown.
Their skilful bartenders display their culinary pros through the creation of aromatic Appleton-inspired cocktails. Their signature drinks include the Jamaican Mule, which is a rich blend of Wray & Nephew white rum , ginger ale and a splash of lime for a refreshing and crisp taste. In the mood for something hot and heavy? Be sure to try the Sharkbite, which has Wray and Nephew White rum at its core. Turn up the heat with Striptease, which is a delicate blend of Campari and grapefruit. Be careful with this one, locals deem it an aphrodisiac with lasting effects. Wash off your heart island-style with X-Ale which is a natural blend of Appleton Reserve and coconut water.
