Trying to finally lock down our end of summer trip-
Anybody been to Carrabelle?
How are the beaches/water?
Is fishing any good?
Is a day trip or 2 out to Dog Island a must?

Dog Island is the awesome if you just want to sit around and do nothing, but good luck finding a place to stay overnight out there. I'm not sure if they relaxed the rules, but maybe 7-8 years ago they made it to where you couldn't rent anything there unless you know someone. We have to pretend we're family members of the people who own the place we stay at.
The water around Carrabelle can get a little murky depending on currents and how much water is coming out of the river right there.
Great fishing around there.
Have you looked in to St. George at all?

Yeah, it's not far. Cute town and would be a great place to live. Beaches are mediocre at best. There is one to the west of town where the sand is OK but there is a huge RV park across the road so it's always pretty crowded. And Carabelle has a river so the water is not all that great. And it's in the bay so usually no waves, and again, the water is not very good.
Fishing can be very good. Carabelle is mostly a fishing town. People head out to Dog Island and around St. George and offshore.
I have not been to Dog Island but St. George Island is one of my favorite places on this earth. I'd stay there.

I wouldn’t go east of St George personally. It’s a nice drive and good fishing, but as far as vacationing to a ‘beach’ it’s river delta, swamp, and marsh mostly all through there.
Are you opposed to going to St George? Or Indian Pass?

Just go to cape San blas, you can day trip to any of those places, but no reason too. Everything you would need is in the bay or beach. Fishing is good.

Eat at Angelo and Sons, probably one of the top 5 restaurants on the entire Gulf of Mexico
