Panama City, FL
My husband and I may be going to Panama City for a few days in March. Where
should we stay, and what are the attractions (other than "doing" the beaches) in the area? We'd want to stay at a mid-price hotel. Also, we are not into the bar scene. I'm in my early 50s and he is 60. Or where else in the panhandle would be nice if not Panama City? Thanks. |

Panama City, FL
One of the nicest areas in all Florida is midway between Panama City and
Fort Walton, which is the communities of Seaside and Watercolor. These are innovative new urbanist communities designed for walking with architecturally distinguished homes, slow traffic, great neighborhood feel and cute shops and restaurants. Both are pricey, but there are inexpensive motels in nearby communities. If you can afford it, contact Seaside's rental agency and rent a house or loft, or try the Watercolor Inn.

Elsewhere in the pandhandle would include Pensacola or Destin, among other places. Pensacola has the Naval Air Museum, and the aquarium is in that area. It also has a real-town downtown area (off the beach) with lots of restaurants, especially in the Seville Quarter (historic district). In fact, I know people who vacation in Pensacola and never go out to the beach. Seaside and, further east, St George Island, are other possibilities. |

My husband and I may be going to Panama City for a few days in March. P.S. You do remember, that is spring break time, right? Definitely calls for somewhere other than Panama City. Unless, that is, you WANT to go to spring break! |
