We took a ride 5/8 to Peck's Old Port Cove, 139 N Ozello Trail, Crystal River, FL It takes about 1 1/2 to 1 hr 40 minutes to drive out there. You go pretty much straight west on 44 then a few turns after that. The last road you feel like you are heading to nowhere land and wonder how a restaurant could be out there, but they are. Only two blocks more and the road ends in the Crystal River with an actual sign that says road ends here with arrow pointing to where the water starts (LOL!!)

We called our favorite place on the east coast and no crabs so we then called Peck's and they had them (small in size) and reserved 24 of them just for us. They were really good. Only thing is that after opening them up, you better dump the water out as there was a 1/2 cup water in the shell otherwise you will get dirty, but, oh, we ended up dirty anyway. Didn't take the bib.

The cost was $49.86 for two dozen and they do have all you can eat (ask them what days when you call) and they do have garlic crabs. The crabs are served with a free appetizer (onion strings), french fries, good coleslaw and two hush puppies. Yummy!!

Oh, we did wash our car this morning after passing through a swarm of love bugs before you cross the freeway near Wildwood.
