Welcome to the quieter side of Florida. The northwest has it all--prime
Gulf Coast vacation spots, powdery quartz beaches, unexpected
waterfalls, and historic downtown areas across the Panhandle. Florida's
history runs deepest here, from prehistoric settlements at Cedar Key and
along the Aucilla River to the Spanish colonies at Pensacola and St.
Augustine. Sandra Friend and John Keatley show readers the best of their
state's natural wonders and historic sights, the seafood restaurants
most worth your time, the most unique lodgings, and a beach for
everyone, whether you're seeking serenity or a busy social scene.

clear, concise directions guide you in your travels. Now in its third
