Forgotten Coast Area

The seaside community of Carrabelle is located on "Florida's Forgotten Coast." When Florida tourism officials left the region from Wakulla to Mexico Beach off state maps in the mid-90's, the nickname was coined and has remained to distinguish this desireable pristine, laid-back portion of the eastern panhandle gulf coast area from the bustle of the high-rise condo communities of Panama City and Destin to the west.
