Carrabelle entices visitors with its “Old Florida” atmosphere in the Big Bend region. Uncrowded beaches can be found in this area where three rivers converge at the Gulf of Mexico. Fishing is a popular activity for this “Gateway to the Gulf.” River marshes and coastal shores provide birding and wildlife viewing opportunities. The public beaches’ white sands welcomes those seeking surf fishing, snorkeling, beachcombing, swimming, sunbathing or just passing leisure time. Onsite amenities include restrooms and covered picnic areas. Fishing regulations/licenses may apply. No lifeguards are on duty. Photo Courtesy of Will Noble.
Keep your distance from other people.
Practicing social distancing is still essential. Only go to the beach if you are able to keep 6 feet or 2 meters away from others. Follow the instructions provided by your local health authorities. If your community has asked that you remain indoors and away from others, do so. Spending a day in any crowded place is the worst thing we can do for our most vulnerable right now and will counter our efforts to curb the virus’s spread.
