Come see Apalachicola homes and find a town full of Old Florida charm and hospitality. The town is situated in northwest Florida, on the banks of the Apalachicola River and Apalachicola Bay. Not only does the location provide residents with beautiful scenery, the ocean and the river provide a living for residents. In fact, 90% of the oysters in Florida are harvested from Apalachicola Bay. Every year in November, the community comes together to celebrate the Florida Seafood Festival in Battery Park. The two-day event brings together residents from Apalachicola real estate, as well as visitors from around the state and beyond. In addition to amazing fresh seafood, art, and music, there is an oyster shucking and eating contest, a parade, the 5K Redfish Run, and more.
Many people are attracted to Apalachicola homes because of the close-knit, small-town feel. The local downtown is a collection of great restaurants, especially seafood, fun boutique shops, and a full calendar of events. The downtown area is also the location of many fascinating historic buildings. Learn more about the history of Apalachicola by visiting one of the house museums, including the Raney House Museum or Orman House State Park. These elegant antebellum homes tell the story of a turbulent time in Florida’s history through the lens of these two families’ experiences. Air-conditioning has made life more bearable during hot Florida summers. John Corrie, a local doctor concerned for his yellow fever patients, invented a machine that made ice, which was one of the first steps toward our modern air conditioners. Visit his house to see a replica of his original machine.
Apalachicola is proud of its history, as well as the modern amenities available to residents. Take the Historic Plaque Walking Tour to learn more about the city and its development, while enjoying the downtown area and the sea breeze. Chapman Botanical Gardens and Park is another great place to visit. See the rare plant species discovered by Dr. Alvin Chapman in the 19th century. Kids enjoy the play structures at Lafayette Park, and the picnic tables provide space for grown ups to relax and chat.
