My favorite place for a post-surf meal is Ragga Surf Cafe in Marineland. Great food and view, but Flagler County has said it will not renew Ragga’s permit. If you’ve been there or simply want to support a small, independent business please sign a petition at #saveraggasurfcaf0e on Instagram. Thanks
