Visit The Best Beach Bar In Tennessee Where It Always Feels Like You’re On Summer Vacation

Tennessee offers unique waterfront experiences, including the Tiki Club on Norris Lake, the best floating bar in the state.

Tennessee is one of the most beautiful states in the country, especially when you think about Tennessee's many stunning lakes throughout the state. But while the Volunteer State isn't exactly known for its beaches, there are still great waterfront experiences that you can have all over, and none of them are as unique as the experience you'll have at the Tiki Club on Norris Lake in Northeast Tennessee. This is by far the best floating bar in the state.

Located on Norris Lake in Northeast Tennessee, the Tiki Club offers a truly unique and truly Tennessee experience.

While proper beaches are hard to come by in Tennessee, there's nothing quite like the waterfront atmosphere you'll get at a Tennessee lake marina like the Deerfield Cove Marina, which is exactly where you'll find the floating Tiki Club.

The bar has all of the decor that you would expect to see at a classic tiki or beach bar. Once inside, you'll truly feel like you're living the island life.

But just because it's a bar doesn't mean it's not family friendly. They have kid-friendly parties on Saturdays complete with music and games for the entire family.

Of course, there are also "activities" for the adults, too. This particular "activity" is called the Frozen Pink Rum Runner, and it's absolutely delicious!

The Tiki Club's only downside is that it's only open during peak boating season. That typically means they're open just in time for Cinco de Mayo and stay open through the end of September.

The marina and Tiki Club are located in LaFollette right on Norris Lake. Their address is 156 Launch Ln.

Learn more about the Tiki Club on its website or Facebook page.
