🌅 Post-Hurricane Calm at the Palatka Riverfront 🌅

Despite yesterday’s "hurricane day," we were lucky to experience only minimal rain in our area. Today, the skies are clearing, and the beautiful colors of fall are starting to show along the Palatka riverfront! 🍂

Take a moment to enjoy the peaceful view, and remember to visit downtown Palatka this weekend to see the seasonal beauty in person.

Rediscover Our Nature

Life on the St. John’s River moves slowly, preserving history along it’s banks. The city of Palatka was once at the focal point of the river, but has since been left behind. It’s time for everyone to rediscover our nature.

Some refer to Palatka as “the Hidden Gem of the St. John’s” due to our unique history and our Southern small-town charm. This city is the perfect getaway from the busy grind of everyday life, while never being too far away from the major attractions of big city life. The ecotourism of Palatka is second to none while remaining centrally located between Jacksonville, St. Augustine, Daytona, Gainesville, and Orlando.

Come and visit our historic riverfront while enjoying the beautiful murals and buildings on the historic registry. Get out and enjoy the fresh air on the river, in the stunning Ravine Gardens State Park, and on our beautiful biking and hiking trails. Speaking of enjoying the fresh air, skydive Palatka is nationally recognized as one of the best skydiving experiences in the United States.

Whatever you are looking for in a city, we here in Palatka know you will find it here because being at the intersection of everywhere and nowhere is simply our nature.
