Carrabelle River FL

[bswood80]

Anyone have experience boating around Carrabelle, Fl? Besides Dog Island are there any must see places or favorite restaurants? I’ll probably hit up Apalachicola also.
Thanks for any Info!

We are there frequently. On a calm day you can cruise on the gulf side (or bay side other days) of St. George Island and make it all the way to little St. George Island. Not a ton different than dog island but it is somewhere else to go and there are more shells there. Not far away (< 1 hr)you can put in at Port St. Joe and go to the tip of Cape San Blas or west to crooked Island. The water is more "Destin like" over there and is worth the trip.

As far as restaurants there are not many you can get to by boat that are worth it. There is a bbq place next to Coastline RV resort in East Point that is good. Main Street Grill and the Fisherman's Wife in Carrabelle are pretty good.
