Apalachicola National Estuarine Research Reserve
Tourist attraction
👍👍 Another hidden gem along the forgotten coast. The center's exhibits and trails are free to visit and there is a ton to learning to be had here. An older Floridian stopped us at the end of the boardwalk, where the river meets the sea, to tell us that this is real Florida- no high-rises, just natural...

Apalachicola River Wildlife and Environmental Area
Nature preserve
👍 Beautiful scenery and very peaceful. It is much different than the tourist heavy, party places that you usually see. This place has more of the older buildings, without all the brand new sky scrapers and large condos. However, this allows for a more laid back experience.

Seafood Landing Park
Park
👍👍 We saw dolphins at dusk. So many little birds flying into roost. The rest rooms were open and good. It's very quiet and serene and see both ways out to the golf of Mexico.

Lafayette Park
Park
👍 This park still has that old south charm. Very nostalgic. It good to see that the tourist industry has not got its hands on it and destroyed it Sometimes money will ruin a place.

Apalachicola Dog Park
Dog park
👍 It's plenty big enough for dogs small and large, and there are very welcome amenities like seating, the pile of tennis balls, paddling pool, water hoses, and drinking bowls. I just wish the grass was cut more frequently.
