The Song Bama Breeze is written about a Bar that is located on the Florida and Alabama State line that goes by the name Flora Bama. In 2004, Hurricane Ivan destroyed the landmark that is known to many. The bar has been rebuilt since 2004 and is better than ever but we still miss the old Flora Bama!
The Bama Breeze is a bar that is located at the Homeport Marina (off of Interstate 155) in Gulf Shores Alabama. It is part of Lulu's (Jimmy Buffet's sister) restaurant.
Florabama is still located at the Florida and Alabama state line in the same spot it was located before the storm.
Side note: Jimmy Buffett's "Bama Breeze" video was shot at the remnants of the Firedog Saloon in Bay St. Louis, MS. It was destroyed by Hurricane Katrina on August 29, 2005.
ACTUALLY: Jimmy's sister's name is Lucy, her restaurant is Lulu's. The Bama Breeze wasn't built until after Katrina so the song couldn't be about that bar at Lulu's. Homeport Marina is located at the intersection of HWY 59 and the inter-coastal waterway. It is not located off of interstate 155 it is at the 155 marker on the inter-coastal waterway.
I read one answer that the Bama Breeze (which is what I understood was correct) is the Flora-Bama bar which is on the Fl AL line on the Gulf of Mexico just outside of Orange Beach Alabama. However that answer was line through and it stated that Bama Breeze is referring to Lulu's Resturant (which is Jimmy's sister). It lis located in Gulf Shores. Depending on the song and during what time it is referring too; Flora-Bama I think is more likely what Jimmy is referring too as Lulu's has not been around as long. Guess only Jimmy can truly answer this one.
It is in Gulf Shores, Alabama. Take Hwy 59 to County Rd. 20 and follow the signs. Best to mapquest Lulu's Resturant in Gulf Shores to get the accurate directions!
