Double red flags mean the Gulf is closed to swimming, but there are still plenty of ways to enjoy Panama City Beach. Consider visiting Pier Park for shopping, dining, and entertainment, or spend time exploring Conservation Park. Depending on conditions, some dolphin cruises, sunset cruises, and fishing charters on St. Andrews Bay may still operate even when Gulf swimming is unsafe. Before booking, check with your tour operator since weather and marine conditions can affect departures.
