Shopping on the Forgotten Coast

There’s more to Florida’s Forgotten Coast than pristine beaches, fresh local seafood and historic landmarks. The small coastal towns of Apalachicola and Carrabelle also boast some unique art galleries, eclectic boutiques and charming shops brimming with handmade, upscale, vintage treasures and unusual gifts not found anywhere else.

Apalachicola’s historic downtown features more than 20 fine art galleries, home interior shops, antique shops, clothing and gift boutiques. In Carrabelle, visitors are in for a pleasant experience as they browse through this port town’s many unique gift and antiques shops offering collectibles, local art and unusual gifts. St. George Island features a full compliment of beach supply and sundries shops; bicycle, kayak and beach gear rental shops; beach wear boutiques; souvenir and gift shops; galleries, ice cream and specialty food stores. Eastpoint is your stop for recreational fishing supplies, bait and tackle and all things marine-related.
