Three days of waterfront views, good food, and even better company. Whether you’re coming from Jacksonville, St. Augustine, Gainesville, Daytona Beach, Atlanta, or Orlando, Palatka’s Blue Crab Festival is the perfect Florida weekend road trip — a celebration of community spirit, local flavor, and small-town pride.
