Has it been a while since you have been to Panama City Beach?  If so, you'll find it's not exactly the same place you may remember from your spring break getaways of years past. 

Panama City Beach has grown and changed ... for the better!

The crystal clear emerald waters and white sugar sand beaches and amazing sunsets are still there and just as beautiful as ever.    But you will also find new restaurants, shopping, and attractions have been added in the last few years.  In fact, there are so many recent additions that you might find it hard to decide what to do first.  Our PCB Guide is designed to help you find exactly what you are looking for.  The PCB Guide will be steadily growing and changing as further information and updates are added.  So take a few minutes to explore all the great options Panama City Beach has to offer.  And don't forget to check back for new information!

You'll definitely want to visit Pier Park.  And when you do, it will be obvious why this area has quickly become a hot spot in Panama City Beach.  From a 16-screen state-of-the-art movie theater to amusement rides, small and large retail shops, entertainment and great dining, Pier Park has everything!  Panama City Beach now has their own Back Porch Seafood and Oyster House and a beautiful Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville.  Entertainment includes PCB's own Tootsie’s Orchid Lounge (bringing Nashville to the beach).

Besides Pier Park, PCB has a lot of other new favorites all along the beach that you will want to visit too.  Attractions like Rispley's Believe it or Not to Wonderworks are sure to grab your attention when you drive by the unique buildings (a replica of the Titanic and an upside-down house).  New dining opportunities include the upscale Firefly (known for being one of the places the President enjoyed while in PCB) and the more casual Sandbar Seafood and Deli.   

And just in case you are wondering if any of your “old favorites” are still around?  No worries.  Many of the great places you remember from years back such as Gulf World Marine Park, Shipwreck Island Water Park, Boars Head Restaurant and Tavern and Dusty’s Oyster Bar are still around and better than ever.  Our PCB Guide will help you find just what you’re looking for! 

Whether you are looking for a quiet relaxing getaway or an adventure vacation or a little bit of both, PCB has so much to offer!  just what you are looking for.  Every kind of fun is awaiting you in PCB, whether your trip is a family vacation, a couples getaway, a golfing trip for the guys, a beach trip for the girls, or just about anything else you have in mind!

The resorts we feature are all located on the west end of Panama City Beach and directly on the beautiful emerald waters of the Gulf of Mexico and offer fantastic views.  You are never more than just a few steps away from the sugar sand beaches so it is easy to play in the surf or take that romantic sunset walk down the beach.  Our resorts offer first-class accommodations and a variety of amenities such as sparkling pools, relaxing hot tubs, fitness centers, outdoor grilling areas, tennis courts, and shuffleboard courts.  Some of our resorts offer on-site restaurants and bars and game rooms.  Looking for a place to have a party, wedding reception or corporate event?  Some of our resorts even have meeting/reception facilities (at an extra charge).  Be sure to check out our RESORTS COMPARISON TOOL to find the perfect fit for you!

The Panama City Beach area is now even easier to get to with the new Northwest Florida Beaches International Airport located just 6 miles from the emerald waters and crystal white sands of Panama City Beach!  Southwest Airlines offers direct flights from Nashville, Houston, Baltimore and Orlando.  Not only is this fantastic news for people living in those four cities, it is also big news for those of you living near any airport being served by Southwest.  With these four cities acting as PCB hubs, you should be able to get one-stop connections from most Southwest cities.  In addition, Delta Airlines also serves Panama City Beach with direct flights from Atlanta and Memphis.  So getting away to the beach just got even easier!
