Explore Port St. Joe: Florida’s Historic Coastal Gem Where Old Florida charm meets bayfront beauty—and your next chapter begins.

Historic Port St. Joe, the county seat of Gulf County, is known as a “small town with a big heart.” This “Old Florida” coastal town located on the shores of St. Joseph Bay has a rich heritage, renowned as the birthplace of Florida’s constitution.  Once a bustling port city boasting the state’s largest population in the 1840s, Port St. Joe is now a quiet coastal town that welcomes visitors and residents looking for a quaint, peaceful getaway.

Nearby sugar white beaches are among the most beautiful Florida has to offer, with rolling dunes and the emerald green waters of the Gulf of Mexico.  Port St. Joe’s revitalized, charming downtown area is home to antique shops, one-of-a-kind boutiques, restaurants featuring locally-caught seafood, well-maintained public parks and a stunning waterfront marina.  

Port St. Joe is teeming with outdoor activities, from paddle boarding, boating and fishing to walking, biking and spending relaxing hours on the beach. The new full-service Point South Marina offers dry dock storage, wet slips and a general store – along with spectacular views of the bay.
