The majority of the Carrabelle area's activities are nature based: boating, kayaking, fishing, hiking, birding, miles of beach to stroll. Carrabelle is undergoing a considerable change, while attempting to maintain its down-home “fishing village” atmosphere and charm. Southern hospitality and Old Florida ambiance are found throughout this little village on the river, along with a town full of friendly people. All our shops and restaurants are locally owned featuring a variety of fresh local seafood and “local pricing” Franklin County is about 80% state & national forests (about 720,000 acres). Carrabelle itself in located about ½ mile up the Carrabelle River that leads to the Apalachicola Bay, which is enclosed by four barrier islands facing the Gulf of Mexico. A variety of organizations offer a range of interesting and fun programs including lectures, fitness, and common interests activities such as art, music, and fellowship.
