Things to Do:
Area Lighthouses:
Florida's Forgotten Coast is home to four unique and historic lighthouses. The oldest, a masonry tower built at St. Marks in 1842, is located in the St. Marks National Wildlife Refuge overlooking beautiful Apalachee Bay. The newest, the fourth reconstruction of the Cape St. George Light, was completed in 2008 on St. George Island. The graceful red and white skeletal lighthouse at Crooked River in Carrabelle is newly restored, and shares its park space with the "Carrabella," a pirate ship playground for children. "Sleeping Beauty" at Cape San Blas includes two keepers dwellings saved from the sea and lovingly refurbished.
Each Forgotten Coast lighthouse tells a story of Florida's maritime heritage and the commitment of its community to preserving history for future generations. Each awaits your visit.
