Further inland is Florida's capital city Tallahassee. This elegant city has a distinct southern air. It is set within rolling hills decorated with majestic moss draped southern live oak and magnolia trees. Although a modern city by any measure it retains much of its historic flavor with numerous 19th century homes and mansions. You'll find a lot of nature-travel opportunities here, especially in and around the Apalachicola National Forest southwest of Tallahassee. Northwestern Florida is different from the rest of the Florida in that it boasts the highest point above sea level in the state. Private entrepreneurs offer kayak tours, guided canoe trips, charter fishing, and dolphin cruises.
