Panama City Beach runs 27 miles along the Gulf between St. Andrews State Park and Camp Helen, with gulf-front condo towers along Front Beach Road and quieter houses toward the west end and Laguna Beach. The sand is fine white quartz and the water shelves gently, so families with young kids settle in here. Spring break fills March, summer runs June to early August, and fall brings the same warm water at half the price.
