Cedar Key
Situated on mosaic-like islands of northwest Florida’s Gulf coast, Cedar Key is ideal for laying low while spending less. In other words, it’s the ultimate low-cost Florida weekend getaway offering stunning ocean vistas, charming restaurants, and that elusive Old Florida allure.
The main draw is Cedar Key’s funky, tiny charm. The town’s population is about 700 to 900 people year-round, but it claims two historical museums and a uniquely historic downtown. It’s utterly walkable, with distinctive shops and restaurants that beg to be discovered.
Affordable or accessible things to do in this low-cost Florida weekend getaway:
-Check out the picturesque Dock Street with wooden houses standing on the water.
-Glimpse the town’s past at Cedar Key State Park Museum.
-Spend a day kayaking.
