Inside America's Forgotten Coast



Inside America's Forgotten Coast

This week’s video takes us along one of the most unspoiled coastlines in America, the Forgotten Coast.

We had one day to explore 80 miles of small towns, empty beaches, seafood history, old Florida charm, and the kind of places that still feel like they belong to the people who built them.

We started in Carrabelle, where we found the world’s smallest police station, met locals who remember when the seafood industry was booming, and quickly realized this stretch of Florida still feels like stepping back in time.

What surprised us most wasn’t just how beautiful this place is. It was how much history, culture, and local pride still live here — and how fragile that feels as more people start to discover it.

This one really feels like the heart of Unique America: not just seeing a place, but experiencing it through the people, food, stories, and landscapes that make it worth remembering.

We hope this video inspires you to slow down, take the back roads, and go make a memory somewhere that still feels a little untouched.

Big thank you to Poncho Outdoors for making this adventure possible. Cole wore their shirts all throughout this Texas trip, and honestly, they were perfect for long, hot days outside — lightweight, breathable, comfortable, and easy to move in whether we were out in the field or in town. Check out Cole's favorite picks here. Enter your email for $10 off your first order (get a great looking shirt and it helps support us, too!)

Go make the memory,
Cole & Emily


You’re invited to travel with us in the Dominican Republic!

This November, we’re heading back to one of our favorite places we’ve ever been... the Dominican Republic (November 7–14).

Tucked along the untouched coastline of Samaná, this experience is all about slowing down and soaking it in — from hidden beaches and jungle adventures to incredible local food and meaningful moments you’ll remember long after the trip ends.

If you need a little inspiration first, our Dominican Republic YouTube series is the perfect place to spark your wanderlust and get a feel for what makes this place so special.

We’ve designed this week to feel effortless and immersive. Think curated experiences, unforgettable scenery, and a small group of like-minded people all sharing it together.

We invite you to experience the Dominican Republic the way we’ve come to love it.

Inside The Amish Farm Feeding Modern America Hey Reader, We spent an entire day working alongside an Amish farmer in Pennsylvania, and what we found was not what we expected. Before sunrise, we were helping pack online orders filled with beef, eggs, milk, cheese and other food from small farms throughout the area. But that left us with a question: How does an Amish farm survive in a modern world? Over the next 16 hours, we moved cattle, traveled by horse and buggy, made cheese, collected eggs...

Inside Florida's Elite Dolphin Training Center Hey Reader, This week on Unique America, we’re in the Florida Keys going behind the scenes at Dolphin Life to find out what it really takes to become a dolphin trainer. We went into the day thinking we’d be learning a few hand signals and spending a lot of time in the water. We quickly found out there is a whole lot more happening behind the scenes before a trainer ever asks a dolphin to do a trick. From the early morning prep to learning how...

Inside the World’s Largest Truck Stop Hey Reader, This week’s video takes us inside Iowa 80, the world’s largest truck stop, during one of the biggest trucker events of the year. But what we found was so much more than a massive truck stop. We went in curious about the size, the trucks, the museum, the food, and the people who come from all over the country to be there. But the deeper we got into the day, the more this story became about the men and women behind the wheel. The drivers...
