Last Resort Bar

5812 S Ridgewood Ave, Port Orange, FL

The Last Resort Bar is a legendary Port Orange dive famous for its dark history and its "Japanese Garden" of hanging motorcycles.

The Last Resort Bar is a gritty Port Orange landmark that maintains a raw, unapologetic biker atmosphere. It gained international notoriety in 1991 as the location where serial killer Aileen Wuornos was apprehended by undercover detectives while drinking at the bar, an event that remains a defining part of the establishment's identity. Inside, the walls are a living history of the local scene, covered in decades of patron graffiti, Wuornos memorabilia, and her framed mugshot behind the bar. Outside, visitors can view the "Japanese Garden," which features several vintage motorcycle frames and parts hanging from the branches of a massive oak tree that dominates the lot. Located on South Ridgewood Avenue, this cash-only bar offers a stark contrast to the commercialized stops of nearby Daytona. It serves as a key destination for riders during major rallies, known for its cold drinks, dark history, and signature branded hot sauce.
