Love oysters? Have we got a pearl for you: Apalachicola, the tiny coastal town known as the oyster capital of the world. Duck into Angelo & Son’s for a taste of the world-famous mollusks. Wander through the maze that surrounds Market Street and find outstanding thrift, antiques, and curiosity shops at every turn. Then find a quiet spot along St. George Island State Park, frequently named one of the best beaches in the U.S.

For more places to eat, shop, and sleep in Apalachicola, see our guide.
