Apalachicola/Port St. Joe Area: Apalachicola is an historic gulf coast port located on St. George Island in Franklin County, Florida. Remnants of its colorful and diverse past remain very visible through its many historic homes and buildings, but today its activities revolve around fishing, kayaking, boating, biking, hiking and wilderness camping. Cedar Key/Steinhatchee Area: Cedar Key is a city on a group of islands located 50 miles west of Gainesville, accessible by bridges and causeways on the Gulf Coast of Florida. Thirteen of these islands comprise the Cedar Keys National Wildlife Refuge. Fishing and seafood is not only Cedar Key's main industry, but also its recreation and the basis for its cuisine. Gainesville Live Oak/Lake City Area: Sandwiched between the Suwannee and the Santa Fe rivers in North Central Florida, this region lays claims to more than 100 springs, unadulterated wilderness, rich recreational possibilities, friendly river towns, old-time festivals and intriguing historical sites. Lake City Tallahassee Area: Best known as Florida’s capital, far from the glaring strips of neon amusement, and the castles and crowds of Disney, Tallahassee is "The Other Florida" with its deep-rooted history, rolling hills, canopy roads of moss-draped oaks, cool climate and Southern-style hospitality.
