Join us as we show you around Indian Rocks Beach, one of the best Florida beach towns, especially if you’re on a budget. Indian Rocks Beach is located just north of Indian Shores, and like its neighbor to the south, it offers beautiful beaches, and old Florida beach town vibe, and several inexpensive options for drinks and dining. Stay tuned to the end to see how we spent an entire day eating, drinking, and exploring in Indian Rocks Beach, all for under $100.

    Hey everyone, thanks for checking out Indian Rocks with us. What do you think, would Indian Rocks Beach fit into your budget? And if you are familiar with the area, do you have any budget friendly spots to add to the list? If so let us know!
  • You've highlighted my favorite beach and town so far since moving here!! So many reasons to love this place. The beach is our favorite!!
  • @bm90025
    I stayed in IRB a couple of times. I love it. My favorite places: Keegans for casual dinner, Colombia Restaurant (all over Tampa Bay, but the one on Sand Key has nice views but tough parking), Seaweed (across the bridge in Belleair). I liked the Cafe de Paris bakery for breakfast and dessert.
  • @bcook1713
    Been visiting Indian Rocks for 12 years and my favorite beach. But this last year the condo owners around the area increased rates so much it is no longer affordable. The condo I stayed in went up $700 from 2021.
  • @BobCarlson
    After all the videos I've watched on your channel, this is the first town I've never heard of. Goes to show, no matter how much you travel or plan to travel, there is still more to see.
  • @michaeloh6
    Loved the video! I live in Toronto, and have been going to Indian Rocks Beach with my parents for 30+ years. We love it, and you highlighted some great spots. Have to mention that a great place to stay is the Great Heron Inn, which you can from the beach in your video - it's an old school Florida courtyard motel, and very well run. IRB is such a gem.
  • Should've went to Pajanos, Oldest Rest. on the beach and best pizza and subs.
  • @chrispham7064
    Great video, Everything looked so amazing . We loved your video Thank you so much . Have a great day you guys.
  • @genehinders9639
    We love IRB...Keegan's is one of our favorite TripleD places and VIP and TJ'S are very good...The Kooky Coconut is awesome and just up the road The Columbia is fantastic....the only salad I've ever left a rave review over.
  • @keithsnow
    Nice Job Sklyer and Jamie....that looked like a fun Florida day!
  • Another fantastic video guys! With a new beautiful beach every week, you're going make us move to Florida! Your food always looks so delicious and feeding two people for under $20 is a real achievement. Great tips!
  • @LeBoof
    Another great beach and another great video.
  • new subscriber, love your contents, love even more about your story about quitting your job(s), keep grinding it, yall will get there. Best of luck.
  • What a great couple, you both are so cool ! Im suprised you dont have a tv show yet, sure is professional quality, looking forward to trying these restaurants 👍
  • @78cheerio
    Thank you. This is the right level of detail for me. As I plan VBRO choices…endless variables of kitchen, washer dryer, #beds etc etc etc for a family, I am also trying to get a feel for every beach town. I’M more than happy to let the guys use the car, but meanwhile I want to have places to get out and walk to,enjoy a coffee and or light healthy snack. Before I commit however, I always need to know how much walking, and do I have a vintage shop? I don’t need much, but a shot glass or Tee shirt or really upscale metal magnet is the right size for me. This is a wonderful video. As I check on VRBO locations I can review your map and know more about details like coffee shop, snack shop, SUP, etc
