Gallery: Sandbaggers Bar
There's a new bar in town, and this one is waaaay different than anything else you are accustomed to.
We'd like to extend a hearty Welcome! to Sandbagger's Bar in Baloy Beach. Getting there is a little more difficult, but it's worth the effort. As you come down Baloy Beach Road and approach the gate, you'll see a little road going up the hill (coming from National Highway it's just past the gate, so turn left up the hill; coming from inside Baloy it's right before the gate, so turn right up the hill). The road winds upwards a little, and very quickly you'll come upon this scene:
The initial view of Sandbaggers as you drive or walk up the short hillside road. The view that awaits is well worth the effort.
This bar is a work in progress. The owner, Ed, is working hard, getting everything installed and set up. This morning they were working hard on putting up big plastic sheets to act as rain barriers. They are transparent so you don't lose that fantastic view. I talked to the bar manager, Marcus, and they are looking at putting in those water mist dispensers - I've seen those in use in many beach and tropical locations, and they drop the temperature by about 15 degrees f. immediately. The comfort rooms got painted today. I think they should rethink the color scheme - it's a little bit metro-sexual for me. How about pink for the girls and blue for the boys? Sandbagger's offers local beers and drinks, as well as a few top-shelf liquors. They are bringing in more and more selections daily. In addition, they have a good menu, with delivery of the food. No need to walk down the hill to grab a bite.
