Apalachicola has roots back to the early 1800s when it was established as a port for the cotton trade where it harbored ships that carried cotton back to Europe and New England. Apalachicola's Historic District has many fine old homes and buildings dating back to the 1830s. The original Trinity Episcopal Church still exists and has been holding services since 1836. A scenic walking tour provides an interesting trip back in time as one walks past old cotton warehouses and along the waterfront.

Dr. John Gorrie, a local physician during the mid 1800s, invented an ice-making machine in 1851 in an effort to help keep his yellow fever patients cool. His ice maker was the forerunner of today's air conditioning systems now so important to Floridian's and our visitors in the summer! A John Gorrie State Museum is located on Sixth Street, one block off of U.S. 98. A replica of Gorrie's ice machine is on display.

Today, Apalachicola's most important industry is seafood harvesting. Apalachicola is renowned for its excellent quality oysters where most of Florida's oysters are harvested. Apalachicola Bay is a very productive tidal bay system fed by the nutrient-rich Apalachicola river. Blue crab, shrimp and fish are also an important part of Apalachicola's local fishing industry.
