Fishing boats during a recent trip to Apalachicola Bay which produces 90% of Florida's oysters and 10% of the nationwide supply...these oysters have a reputation with chefs across the US as being some of the finest tasting oysters available.
Apalachicola River and Bay meet in the eastern Gulf of Mexico to form one of the most unspoiled and productive estuaries in the country...the mixure of salt and fresh water makes an ideal nursery for oysters, shrimp, crabs and a variety of fish.
Where we ate freshly caught Apalachicola oysters...not big on raw...definitely prefer baked or fried.
Funny sign we saw in a gift shop window...
I liked this one too...
