Latitude13: Lunching at the Cove

Lunching at the Cove
Tuesday, January 3, 2006

Sometimes I get a craving that only a grilled fish sandwich at Jeff's Pirates Cove can satisfy.

The last time I visited JPC might be almost a year ago. There's a lot going on there now. They've got beach chairs set up along the water and an area roped off for swimming. There are more hammocks up, a volleyball net up for beach volleyball and a basketball court. The place was packed with locals and tourists when I was there for lunch Saturday afternoon. The last time I visited it was pretty dead so it is nice to see business is good at The Cove.

I heard a rumor yesterday that a waterpark is being developed at the Talofofo Golf Course. Does anyone know if this is true?

ahhh jeff's pirat's cove...man, that place has been around forever. it's not like all the places on the west side of the island. but there are a few places that will always be there...like tower of london, and shirley's and of course--king's--though the OG one at gibson's was the stuff of my memories... great pics josie, i know we'll be seeing more this year---thanks for the memories...

You're talking about the OG King's that was actually attached to Gibsons, right? That's going WAY back. That was back in the day when Popeye's Chicken was at Gibsons! lol

I love going to Jeff's, probably because it is so close to my home. I go there almost every week - I've probably got a dozen of his t-shirts laying around the house. His latest design is a hoot.

This website is so great. I lived on
Guam from '82-95. Lots of memories
come back and wish from time to time
to go back. The "cove" back then was
a real a great hangout, a little rough,
but great scenery and people watchin'.
The comment from one observer about the
8. quake, my family was in the airport
sending our son off to Hawaii for school when it struck. That airport
terminal was tough back then. Am enjoying nostalgia on this site. Good
luck.
