Lower Grand Lagoon
Lower Grand Lagoon lets you live the classic Panama City Beach dream with the bonus of having two waterfronts to enjoy. At St. Andrews State Park, you can snorkel clear waters in the morning and fish off the jetties by sunset. Thomas Drive buzzes with activity, from dolphin shows at Gulf World Marine Park to countless spots where you can rent jet skis or book a deep-sea fishing charter. Seafood dominates the dining scene here with everything from casual beachside grills to upscale waterfront restaurants. Most accommodations are beachfront resorts and vacation rental condos with stunning Gulf views. Getting around requires a car or rideshare, but a seasonal beach trolley connects the major spots during peak tourist months.
