Description
Protecting a bit of history here. The town of Apalachicola has memorialized this old Oyster Boat.
Once considered the third largest shipping port on the Gulf Coast, Apalachicola is the county seat of Franklin County. Remnants of its colorful and diverse past remain very visible today through its many historic homes and buildings. There are more than 900 historic homes, buildings and sites in the city's historic district. You can begin learning about this historic port by downloading Apalachicola's Historic Museum and Historic site map and brochure.
Apalachicola's history and maritime culture are matched only by the area's bountiful natural resources and fresh local seafood, including the world-famous Apalachicola Bay oyster! If you're a visitor here, you'll find plenty of restaurants serving fresh local seafood. source:http://www.cityofapalachicola.com/
