There's a tradition among Baltimoreans of "going down the ocean" each summer. Now, thanks to this innovative night spot, visitors to the city can participate in that tradition without leaving the comfort of downtown. Pass through the sleek bar area, and across an outdoor terrace, and you'll find a lovely man-made beach dotted with palm trees, tiki lamps and tables. There you can enjoy a seaside ambiance, watching boast glide across the bay, sipping cocktails and sample some first-rate bar-fare, including a great bowl of crab soup. Friday happy hour from 5p-7p features a free buffet; Sunday features a wacky "Jamaica Me Crazy" Party.
