You haven’t truly experienced this oceanfront dive until you’ve been there on a summer Sunday afternoon — when you’ve walked in from the beach, up the back steps, past the nonstop volleyball tournaments and the band on the deck stage. There’s a moment — right at the door — when you go completely blind, your sun-scorched retinas failing to immediately adjust to the dark of the bar. And all at once it comes clear — the Corona bottles, the leathery old men shooting pool, the most beautiful women you’ve ever seen, wet-haired and bikinied: a tada! moment that all great entrances deserve.
