But Scotty's has a loyal following of locals, regular tourists, boaters, and just plain lovers of cheap beer and sunsets that are willing to fight the good fight as witnessed on regular jaunts to the restaurant.

At the entrance to the restaurant more often than not you'll find a volunteer or two asking you to fill out a Save Scotty's Landing petition.
