Port St. Joe is located within the Florida Panhandle, and along the Emerald Coast. In the 19th century, Port St. Joe was almost named the capital of Florida. The city received its name from nearby Saint Joseph, which was destroyed only eight years after it was founded, after yellow fever killed many of the town's residents in 1841 and a hurricane destroyed its buildings in 1843.
