Review & FAQ:

The town of Apalachicola was first developed during the 19th century, in the 1830s, and it bears distinction because so much of that original town is still fully in tact todayl, including the layout, with easily walkable streets lined with trees. A walking tour of Apalachicola will highlight the maritime industry which has long been its lifeblood, with a waterfront, oyster houses, ice houses, and packing plants for shrimp, as well as the cotton warehouses where cotton was stored before being exported from Apalachicola’s ports. Walking tours will also point out notable historic buildings and houses, many of which are nearly two centuries old.
