The Forgotten Coast is typically referred to as the small communities like Carabelle, Apalachicola, St. George Island, Port St. Joe, and Cape San Blas that are east of the tourist-y areas of Panama City Beach and Destin along the Florida Panhandle .Some say that the Forgotten Coast is the last part of Old Florida that hasn't been taken over by strip malls and high-rise condos as a tourist trap.
