Every travel destination is different. From the climate to the culture, there are always things you should consider when you’re planning a trip. It’s always a good idea to be appropriately packed, especially when it comes to things like clothing and other additions to protect you from the weather. Of course, there are also things that you’ll want to see, and things you might want to avoid. So, with all of that in mind, here are some Panama City travel tips to make sure you get the most out of your Panama City Beach vacation.
Clothing
Panama City Beach has that iconic Florida sunshine for an average of 320 days per year, so you’ll want to be prepared for that. While the temperature generally tends to stay fairly comfortable due to the cool coastal breeze, you’ll want to make sure to pack lighter, breathable clothing to make sure the heat doesn’t get to be too much for you. This is less of a worry during the winter, but by no means does it get cold, so bring something light just in case.
That amount of sunshine also means you should remember the sunscreen, especially if you plan on spending much time outside, and with the gorgeous, sandy beaches right on your doorstep, why wouldn’t you? Summer and winter visitors might need to worry about rain coming through, especially during hurricane season, so consider packing an umbrella if the weather’s looking rough.
Transportation
If you’re flying into ECP, you’re less than 20 miles from Panama City Beach. The airport has plenty of options for getting you to your rental, and if you’re in a location where everything is nearby, you might not even need a rental car of your own. If you do decide to book your own vehicle, it’s recommended to do so three to six months ahead of time for the best rates. Otherwise, you’ll find plenty of cabs, or ride-sharing services like Uber and Lyft at the ready for you.
Countless Rental Choices and Panama City Travel Tips
You’ll have a host of options when it comes to booking your stay. Depending on your preference, you might enjoy staying in a high-rise condo so you can make use of all of the extra amenities that come with it, or you might want to have a more private beachfront home.
