Panama City, with bright sun-shiny days and over 27 miles of beaches
composed of some of the most brilliant white sand in the world, it's no
wonder so many people return to Panama City year after year. The beaches
are a gateway into a wonderful selection of sea activities including
snorkeling, scuba diving, boating, skiing, and fishing. The lucky visitor
can even rent a pontoon boat or jet ski for a day of personal adventures on
the beautiful waters of the area. It's an adventure that won't be
forgotten. If you preference is to have someone else do the driving, there
are many companies offering glass bottom boat tours.
 There are numerous
state parks and nature preserves, including St. Andrews State Park and Gulf
World Marine Park. These parks offer tours and educational resources
related to the habitat surrounding Panama City.
Beyond the beaches, Panama City offers plenty of entertainment. Several
world-class golf courses can be found here, in addition to more than a
dozen miniature golf versions. The Ocean Opry Show mixes city life with
water life. That mix of city and gulf is also evident at the Museum of Man
in the Sea. Several amusement parks compete for visitors' time, including
Shipwreck Island, a popular water themed park. Nightlife in Panama City
offers abundant clubs, restaurants for any tastes, discos, bars, and other
hot spots.
For the young and young at heart, Panama City is the destination of
choice for several thousand college students each year during spring break,
beginning in late February
 and continuing through the month of March, but
for the rest of the year other visitors come to experience and enjoy its
many charms. Families love the abundant activities, both in and out of the
water.
Panama City's subtropical temperatures and relaxing Gulf of Mexico
waters make this Florida destination a definite must see for anyone
visiting the area. Who knows, while taking a leisurely walk along the
beach, you might just find a piece of buried treasure or a valuable ancient
coin. After all, Panama City's colorful history includes accounts of real
pirates hiding in the deep pockets of the bay lying in wait for the richly
laden ships en route to Mexico and Spain.
Come and discover this treasure for yourself. Panama City, a Florida
playland for all.
