Inspired by travels to Panama City, Florida.
Many years ago while taking a RV trip down from Michigan to Key West Florida for a Christmas vacation, we stopped in a small little town on the Gulf that offered so much unexpected charm and beauty that my Dad claimed right then and there that we could stay right here and not continue on down south to our destination of Key West. It was a chilly 58 degrees (which seemed like a heatwave compared to the Michigan air we had just escaped days before) and he proceeded to dive right in the beautiful cool waves. I had to admit, from that moment on, there has been a soft spot in my heart for the lesser talked about tourist town on the north east side of the Florida coast. Panama City is a city in and the county seat of Bay County, Florida, United States. Located along U.S. Route 98, it is the largest city between Tallahassee and Pensacola.
Fortunately as many years have passed, this once only raging college spring break stop has become a family friendly and retirement haven as well. Now hosting activities for all age groups and interests, Panama City is a really cool travel destination for all!
