About Palatka
Palatka is the Blue Crab Capital of Florida and one of the St. Johns River's most characterful waterfront cities -- the Ravine Gardens State Park's spectacular 12-acre ravine (a geological anomaly in flat Florida, draped in azaleas that draw 100,000+ visitors for the annual Azalea Festival), the Tilghman Bridge's St. Johns River crossing views, and the historic downtown's Victorian commercial character create a complete small-city identity. Putnam County's most affordable pricing. Medians around $180K-$270K.
