Did you know the oysters of Apalachicola Bay are considered the best-tasting oysters in the world? The unique geography and topography of the Apalachicola Bay Estuary makes it one of the most productive bays in North America, as a large variety of marine creatures use its brackish waters to produce their offspring.

Oysters prepared a variety of ways are available at restaurants all along the Forgotten Coast. While new and creative recipes are constantly being developed, the most popular way to ingest oysters is eating them raw on the half-shell.

Apalachicola hosts an annual Oyster Cook-Off every January to determine who has the bragging rights for this local favorite.

Though yields have declined in recent years for a number of reasons, efforts are underway to restore the bay and its bounty of delicious seafood.

Locals and visitors alike will be thrilled to learn that Indian Pass Raw Bar has re-opened once again. Referred to by Southern Living magazine as “quite possibly the best seafood shack in existence,” Indian Pass Raw Bar is famous for its friendly service, casual atmosphere, and world-class local seafood.

Without a doubt, a trip to Indian Pass Raw Bar was a Forgotten Coast tradition until the devastation of Hurricane Michael in October 2018. This local legend has been in business as a raw bar since 1986, but has roots going all the way back to 1903. The owners definitely have taken care to remain true to its roots as they rebuilt after the storm.
