Panama City sits on St. Andrew Bay at the center of the Florida Panhandle, a working waterfront city with a port, shipbuilding, healthcare and a strong military presence at Tyndall Air Force Base and Naval Support Activity Panama City. Tyndall has been rebuilt on a large scale since Hurricane Michael in 2018 and now hosts F-35 fighter squadrons, bringing new investment, contractors and visiting personnel to the area.

Just across the bridge, Panama City Beach offers miles of white sand, condo towers, Pier Park shopping and family attractions, while St. Andrews State Park and Shell Island provide calmer water and excellent snorkeling. East along the coast, Mexico Beach, Port St. Joe and Apalachicola make up the lightly developed Forgotten Coast, prized for oysters, scalloping and empty beaches. Driving here from South or Central Florida takes most of a day, and airline trips often add a connection; flying privately makes a long weekend on the bay practical, whether you are coming for business at the base or a family beach week.

Things to do in Panama City

When to go. Spring and fall bring warm water and pleasant temperatures with fewer crowds, while summer is the busiest family vacation season and March brings spring breakers. Winter is cool and quiet and popular with snowbirds. The Thunder Beach Motorcycle Rally rolls into Panama City Beach each spring and fall. Hurricane season runs from June through November, and Hurricane Michael in 2018 is a reminder to watch forecasts closely in late summer and fall.
