GUIDE
Coquina’s Seafood Grill Coquina’s has the ultimate view for people who visit Florida: the Atlantic Ocean, with stemware and linen on the tables and a sophisticated, modern atmosphere.

Highway A1A, Indialantic, (321) 777-4100. BLD. $19-$32
Islands Fish Grill Islands is small and often crowded, for a reason: 11 varieties of fresh fish served daily, in various ways, as well as steak, chicken and shellfish.

Reservations are recommended. 111 Fifth Avenue, Indialantic, (321) 956-0559. D. $17-$25
