It is believed that the name of the settlement is derived from the locally obtained fluke fish. Flookburgh, which is now home to cockle and shrimp fishermen, was originally a well-liked resting place for visitors coming from Lancaster across the dunes. The community has a pub, a grocery store, a pharmacy, a post office, and two eating establishments.
