Panama City is a Florida city filled with lots of attractions, parks, and places to eat. The sun shines here 320 days a year, and has crystal clear beaches. And not only do the beaches have one of the highest bottlenose dolphin populations in the world, but it also has a large fishing sport fleet! The weather here is perfect for vacationers and tourists, with an average of 74 degrees year-round. With this guide, you'll find lots to do at Panama City and the Panama City Beach area.
The beach at this state park lies just along the shore of the Gulf of Mexico. Tons of activities are available to do here, including surfing, snorkeling, boat tours, paddling, and tons more! There is also plenty of wildlife, which are protected by the marshes. You can even tour out to "Shell Island" which is the park's own "abandoned island".
Other than the St. Andrews State Park, there are plenty of other
activities for you and your family to enjoy. There's the conservation park, which has miles of
woodland domes and wetlands with plenty of hiking trails. The length of the hiking trails range
from 0.5 to 11 miles, and is suitable for both hikers and bike riders.
Other than the parks, there are plenty of other places to visit, such as the Gulf World
Marine Park (an aquarium with live dolphin shows), Pier Park, and a variety of different
waterparks!
As with many beach-y cities, there are lots of seafood places to eat at. Some of these restaurants include Harpoon Harry's Beachfront Restaurant, The Wicked Wheel, and the Shrimp Basket. If seafood isn't your thing, there's other restaurants that serve more than seafood, like Barefoot On The Beach or Coconuts Restaurant.
