Matlacha, the fishing village that went technicolor
1995
Matlacha, Florida

A mullet-fishing village on a causeway island whose economy was outlawed overnight by the 1995 statewide net ban. The fish houses and shacks reinvented themselves as galleries painted in colors that should not work together and do, and the drawbridge locals call the fishingest bridge in the world still has a line of rods along it at dawn.
That was 1 of the hidden places.
