Real estate on St. George Island is primarily single family beach homes; waterfront lots are also available. Most of the vacation beach homes rent by the week to tourists from around the world. On the mainland is Apalachicola, a small coastal town full of historic homes and a working waterfront. Carrabelle is the boating center of Franklin County.
