Proving the point that the more things change the more they stay the same, Carrabelle remains pretty much what it was at the time of the Civil War, a quiet spot to relax and enjoy some of the best fishing in the country. Several marinas, motels and townhome complexes provide the weekend visitor with some of the best fishing opportunities in the world. This morning you may fish an inland lake or stream for bass, and this afternoon embark on a deep sea fishing cruise in search of marlin. Carrabelle is home to the world’s smallest police station and one of the world’s largest and most prestigious fishing tournaments held each year, the Yamaha Big Bend Saltwater Classic, as well as a growing number of events and festivals that all add up to an interesting place to visit.
