Experience Doc Ford

Just as Randy’s novels are inspired by these islands, his days on the water, and the people he came to know, the Doc Ford themed sports bars and Cuba expeditions were inspired by the marine biologist who is the main character of those novels. Visit one of four Doc Ford’s Rum Bar & Grilles or sign up for a Cuba expedition, where you can explore the ins-and-outs of Cuba with us.
