Franklin County Beach & Seafood Report - August 19

Aug. 19 Beach & Seafood Report - Click Here    September Seafood Days Coming! Beginning Sept. 1, if you stay 2 or more nights with any of Franklin County's licensed lodging providers, you can earn gift card rewards that could total up to $250. The September Seafood Days is the latest promotion launched by Franklin County tourist leaders to boost visitation during the post-summer pre-fall doldrums. The campaign will run the month of September and visitors who have reservations already for September will be eligible for the savings as well as those who walk in during the month. We'll be filling you in on the details in coming days so stay tuned!   The September Seafood Days promotion is just one of the many ways the TDC is promoting the area this fall. Beginning in September the TDC will join Visit Florida in launching the first in what it hopes will be a continuing series of Franklin County-based Natural Florida Getaways to be promoted at each of the five State Welcome Centers. The first promotional campaign, scheduled to run September through October, is intended to boost visitor interest in our area during the offseason. Visit Florida officials say it is expected to be seen by an estimated 300,000 visitors during the two months. The first Getaway campaign will feature St. George Island - one of Franklin County's premiere natural beaches. Resort Vacation Properties is donating the first getaway vacation which will also feature a guided kayak tour from Journeys of St. George Island, a lighthouse tour and tee shirts as well as a meal for two donated by the Blue Parrot Oceanfront Cafe.  Additional campaigns are being developed for Apalachicola, Carrabelle, Alligator Point and even a special natural getaway fishing vacation.
