Due to the uncertainty of the storm and potential impacts, we regret to announce the cancellation of the Blue Crab Festival on September 28. We will explore options for rescheduling the 2024 festival and will keep everyone updated. Thank you for your understanding, and stay safe!

If you are yearning to slow down and experience a historical, authentic “Old Florida” village, then meander south to Panacea.  You’ll discover a coastal area steeped in rich maritime history, shaped by generations of proud families, who still work the water in the time-honored traditions of boat-building, shrimping, crabbing, and fishing.

 

Panacea, nestled between the St. Marks National Wildlife Refuge and Apalachicola National Forest, is considered a nature lover’s paradise. Towering pine forests, shady palmetto and hardwood hammocks, a bountiful freshwater lake, healthy tidal marshes, and pristine estuaries provide opportunities for bird and wildlife observation. The sweeping views are often so compelling you stop you in your tracks.
