It’s all in the timing

When taking a trip to northern Florida in the winter, one of the things you quickly discover is that many of the locals head further south for the winter. This means that you need to be sure to call ahead. Is the fishing trip you were planning on still available? Is that restaurant you were dying to try open?

Panama City Beach has a number of amusements for children, including a Ripley’s Believe It or Not, several miniature golf courses , marine displays, etc. However, we didn’t see any of these open the week we were there.

The main season for tourists there is March through October. If you are looking for a family vacation with lots of fun in the sun, Panama City Beach is a great place – as long as you schedule it beween Spring Break and Halloween. If you want a quiet time and aren’t concerned about lots of sunbathing on the beach, try some time between October and March.
