We love the big picnic tables overlooking the water. Great sunset spot and a good choice for a fancier dinner out. We love the Ahi Tuna appetizer, Lobster Bisque and Grouper Oscar.

Sebby’s had only been open for one week when we tried it out for brunch on a Sunday. The food took a little while to come out, but the service was great and the food was quite good! We had- veggie omelette (comes with home fries), mushroom flatbread, breakfast burrito, and the blueberry pancakes. We also shared the mimosa flight which was a great deal. We’ll definitely be back!

Sightseeing
The green swamp contains at least 14 different species of insectivorous plants, including extensive populations of Venus fly trap, sundew, and four species of pitcher plant. Many varieties of orchids are also found here. The flower show is almost year-round here. The best time to see Venus fly traps is late spring. In late October/early November, look for the rare Carolina Grass-of-Parnassus dotting the Ecotone.
