So, it’s coming up on Spring Break Vacation, you’re siked to get out for a week or so, and you definitely want to get out of the old mundane scenery you’re so used to. There are a variety of places you can go, but you really don’t want to miss Florida, where the sun is always hot, the water cool and salty, and fresh breezes or spring rain to cool off after the mid-day. If that’s got your attention, then let me redirect you to a pinpoint location: Panama City Beach in the Panhandle of Florida. Twenty-seven miles of granite white sand beaches, extending east to west, large enough for the entire state to come and relax without being too crowded. Now that I’ve tossed my line, have you taken the bait?

Located in Okalossa County, Florida, Fort Walton Beach is a fishing and beach resort phenomenon. Named one of the Top 100 places to live, it is also teeming with visitors all spring break and summer long. Fort Walton Beach has 24 miles of powder soft beaches to walk upon while you enjoy things such as the sun set, fishing, swimming in the ocean or catching some waves. Families can enjoy one of the beachside parks and the elders can hit up one of the many golf courses for an 18 hole game. There’s so much to do, and what there is to do is only limited by your imagination, so follow me as I describe to you some of the places you can enjoy and leave your mind to wonder.

I’ve lived on the east coast of Florida for many years but it wasn’t until recently that I spent a few days in the Panhandle. I was so surprised at how different it was from all the other places I had been in Florida, and I have been all over Florida. For one thing the water is a beautiful shade of emerald green and the beaches are white sand where as the water along the east coast are a beautiful clear blue and the beaches are a lovely oatmeal color, quite a contrast. One of the other things I noticed about Florida Panhandle Beaches was how the area, especially around Destin, was so beautiful and peaceful. There were tree lined streets, small pastel painted houses, outdoor malls that were cleverly disguised as quaint wood framed buildings which held all the designer brands and labels and at least a dozen well manicured golf courses.
