As one of the US’s most popular spring break destinations, Panama City Beach has a lot to offer for both family fun and more festive groups. Situated on Florida’s Emerald Coast along the Gulf of Mexico, you can enjoy beautiful white sand beaches with clear, calm, and warm waters. Step off the beach to one of the many casual spots nearby, or head to Pier Park for shopping or one of the many special events.

Nature lovers can take a boat out to Shell Island and enjoy the beautiful nature preserve, or head to St. Andrews State Park. Keep your eyes on the water, this is a popular spot to see Bottlenose Dolphins! If you’d rather see them up-close, check out the Gulf World park for all sorts of sea life.
