Cedar Key is a nice little community if you like laid-back,relatively quiet and not a lot to do places. There are a few good restaurants, some galleries, good sport fishing, and boating opportunities. It's 30 miles or so to a Wal-Mart. We like it a lot, but YMMV. As mentioned above, Appalachicola would be closer for you and you would still get the "old Florida" atmosphere with a little more to do, more restaurant choices, better beaches, etc. We like both places a lot but haven't been there in the TT. Yet...
