Port St. Joe is the county seat of Gulf County with a historic business district filled with shops and restaurants, recreational areas, walking trails and a marina on St. Joseph Bay.

IMPORTANT UPDATE FROM FWC!!!!!

FWC just released an announcement regarding the 2026 bay scallop season, and if you're in the Gulf County area, here's what you need to know.
