100 tantalizing recipes inspired by the coast. With jaw-dropping scenic photography from seaside locales around the globe and cues for setting your own enticing scene, Beach Eats is a guide to beach-inspired gatherings wherever you reside.

The beach is a gathering place for vacationers, an inspired place to call home for locals, and a magical spot for dreamers who live far from sea breezes and ocean waves. Likewise, seaside homes and sandy beaches are idyllic places for families and friends to come together to celebrate both the everyday and the special occasions few and far between.

This stunning cookbook reflects the locales people gather to share a drink, a meal, or a little something sweet by the shore--Cabana Bar, Beachside Grill, Seafood Shack, Roadside Stand, Boardwalk Bakery, and Ice Cream Cart.

Recipes include tropical thirst-quenchers like a Candied Kumquat Manhattan and a Ginger-Lime Daiquiri to enjoy with savory Crab Rangoon or creamy Macadamia-Coconut Dip. Grill up Hoisin Burgers with Pickled Vegetables or a White Pizza with Clams and Bacon. Cool off with Hawaiian Shaved Ice or tasty Avocado-Lime Paletas.

Beach Eats is the much-anticipated first cookbook from Coastal Living to be released in 15 years and it is the perfect complement to Coastal Living's guide to Beach Cocktails.
