Florida Seafood Festival


The Florida Seafood Festival is an annual public event held in Apalachicola, Florida on the first weekend of November. It features a parade, a carnival, blue crab races, an oyster eating contest, an oyster shucking contest, a 3.1 mile road race, a country music concert, arts and craft booths, and plenty of fresh local seafood. The local seafood served is made by local non-profit groups. It is the oldest seafood festival in the state. The 2010 Florida Seafood Festival Oyster Shucking Champion Mike Martin won the 2010 National Oyster Shucking Championship.
