Beneath the surface of the sleepy waterfront village of St. Marks, Florida,
lay centuries of intriguing stories waiting to be told – of Apalachee Indians,
Spanish explorers, and Indian wars; of forts and cannon fire, pirates, sunken
ships, and battles with invasive forces up through the Civil War. This historic
gulfport city may be the third oldest settlement in North America, staking
claim to one of the longest histories of any place in Florida.
