Port St. Joe is proud to call itself a small beach city with a big heart, welcoming visitors from all over to enjoy the idyllic atmosphere, playful and friendly ambiance, and the warmth of the Gulf of Mexico. Get your fishing license registered and take on a fishing charter to catch some sea trout and flounder at St. Joseph Bay. If your fishing skills aren’t up to par, head to restaurants, such as Indian Pass Raw Bar or Krazyfish Grille to get your fill of seafood instead. If you’re in town for it, catch the yearly Forgotten Music Festival, named after the Forgotten Coast.
With such a scenic coastline waiting to be explored, it would be best to choose accommodation close to the beach during your stay. So, check out these best beachfront Airbnb vacation rentals near Port St Joe, Florida.
