We visited Carrabelle for the first time right after Hurricane Sally plowed through the area, damaging shoreline across the Panhandle. It was very different from the beaches just to the West (Destin, PCB). It’s a long, narrow coastline parallel to Scenic Hwy 98 and nestled between national forests. At high tide, it’s not much to see. But don’t let the first glance fool you! We walked miles in either direction along sandy beaches with beautifully undisturbed salt marshes & pristine pine forest. Expect darker Gulf water than the Emerald Coast, but much more native flora & fauna. We watched egrets & pelicans and saw an astonishing number of hermit crabs & oysters. It’s not a highly developed area so the privacy is nice. Lots of couples walking & playing with their dogs. You can see St. George Island in the distance. Enjoyed experiencing natural Florida habitat so close to the main route.…

Smaller beach compared to others, but fun to walk or just to sit and sun. Some seaweed, no shells, but a clean beach. Restrooms and shaded picnic tables are available.
