About the Area
Long walks on peaceful, unspoiled beaches…fishing and kayaking along ancient, cypress-lined rivers…snorkeling, diving and scalloping in crystal clear waters…reeling in a beautiful trophy catch from the Gulf of Mexico’s rich waters…
Located in Florida’s Panhandle southwest of Tallahassee, Gulf County consists of some of the most distinctive areas anywhere. Visiting the Forgotten Coast is like venturing back to a simpler time…
Come along with us as we take you on a brief tour of the Forgotten Coast and all it has to offer.
Cape San Blas is a breathtaking peninsula that curves along Florida's big bend and offers sugar white sandy beaches, whispering sea oats perched upon majestic sand dunes on a stretch of near-perfect beach untouched by time.
Adjacent to the Cape is another tiny peninsula, Indian Pass. This picturesque, “Old Florida” community has a nostalgic charm that makes it a true treasure.
The C30A corridor connects Cape San Blas and Indian Pass to northwest Florida’s main artery, U.S. Hwy. 98. Dotted with commercial activity, C30A provides access to the area’s airport, golf course and local marina.
Apalachicola is a truly unique place - a place that is a blend of sophistication and simplicity, of vibrant life and serenity, a place that is old and yet around each bend is something new and different.
Port St. Joe is the largest city of Gulf County and the county seat and one of Florida's oldest settlements. This small deep-water port community is rich both in natural resources and history.
The Quiet Alternative. With its satin, sugary white sand beaches and awe-inspiring sunsets over the breathtaking Gulf of Mexico, Mexico Beach has long been a memorable choice destination for sand and surf seeking vacationers.
Farmland, freshwater fishing and Tupelo honey compliment sleepy country living with vast tracts of unpopulated land in northern Gulf County.
St. George Island, also known as The Uncommon Florida and Dog Friendly Beaches, is without question in a class by itself.
