The Florida Panhandle is known for its quaint beach towns and interesting attractions, many of which are money-saving and family friendly. Come to the Florida Panhandle and relax on glorious beaches, shop to your heart’s content and dance the night away. Santa Rosa Island is great for kids and offers a wide array of both beach-based and water-based activities. Families will enjoy a day away to tour the 150-year-old Pensacola Lighthouse. The Florida Panhandle offers exciting nightlife. Panama City, Destin and Pensacola all have numerous bars and nightclubs to suit all tastes. Panama City is home to Club La Vela, the largest nightclub in the U.S. The Florida Panhandle is a shopaholic’s dream. It offers specialty stores, antique stores and shopping malls. For those renting a home or condo, a trip to Joe Patti’s seafood market in Pensacola is a must. The market specializes in fine wine and cheese, and beautifully presented handmade chocolates to take home to friends and relatives as gifts. Mon Père et Moi in Tallahassee is also worth a visit.

Normal Business Hours: Monday - Saturday 10am-5pm Closed on Sunday Holiday Closure: January 1, 2021 January 2, 2021 Panama City Beach Winery is located across the street from the magnificent beach!!! We are in the corner of the St. Thomas Square shopping area on Joan Avenue and Thomas Drive (facing Joan Avenue). We offer 100% real fruit wines. Some of our wines are made with over 9 pounds of fruit in one bottle! No reservation required for our complimentary wine tasting.
Fun experience because of the two ladies working there who made it fun! Wine tasting is free. Wines are fruity, some sweet, some dry, and most made from Florida fruit. My GF and I walked out with 6 bottles of wine and a few other items from the store inside the winery. My favorites were their two top sellers ... The Hurricane Class 5 Sangria and the Key Lime wine. They do ship to you if you're flying and can't take in your luggage.

We are a small award-winning craft distillery located in the Florida Panhandle. Our distillery is housed in the industrial units behind the retail spaces at the Midway Plaza, across the street from the Zoo in Gulf Breeze, FL. We currently make Rum and Vodka from 100% Florida molasses. We offer tours and tastings and would love nothing more than to show you around! Incorporated in 2011 our distillery has grown quite a bit in the past few years. We came to our current location in 2012; received our first shipment of molasses in 2013; and released our first products onto the market at the beginning of 2016! We have a neat little tasting room in which you can purchase bottles and other neat merchandise and "swag"! Please, stop by and see what craft distilling is all about!! Cheers, Rollins Distillery
Great distillery tour, very knowledgeable family on local info, background, history and great stories that added to the distilling process. Honestly, I'm not even a rum drinker, but we were looking for something different to do, and I walked away a big fan of several rums they make! We definitely plan on coming back, especially as they grow in their space and continue experimenting with flavor profiles. Absolutely worth the time and experience, it's a hidden gem for the local area. It makes sense why they've won so many awards!

newest Music and concert show room on the Gulf Coast. Bringing Branson style family friendly entertainment to beautiful Panama City Beach! National Recording Artist Todd Allen Herendeen and his Follow That Dream (FTD) Band are the primary show and main act performing several nights a week! A catered dinner is offered before the show. Reservations required.
My husband and I had front row seats at the Todd Herendeen Show and we thoroughly enjoyed it. First, a buffet of beef tips over rice, fried chicken, green beans, rolls, cake, with coffee, tea or water was served, followed by a 2-hour musical show put on by Todd, his wife Angel, and his entire band. Todd sings many Elvis songs, along with Johnny Cash, Willy Nelson, & Roy Orbison. We really enjoyed his performances. Before dinner, we had a chance to meet and chat with the other folks who were seated at the same table with us. I would recommend this show to anyone who wants a reasonably priced night out and something different to do while in Panama City Beach. This was not our first visit to the show and probably won't be our last.

Oh my goodness!!!! This place is awesome and such a wonderful experience. As soon as you walk into the Redbird Art Experience, you're in awe of your surroundings. This place is so unbelievably cool. The whole concept behind this place is just fantastic. There are massive amounts of beads, glass, bottles, rocks, ribbons, etc... for you to use to create your masterpiece. Robin was so helpful and assisted me with everything. This is a great idea for kids and adults, especially if it happens to be a rainy day in Destin. I thoroughly enjoyed my time here and would definitely return and take family with me!!!!!!

We are an educational and cultural institution of long standing traditions. It is our mission to preserve, interpret and present the prehistory and history of the Fort Walton Beach community and the Northwest Florida area from 14,000 B.C. through the 1950′s. We serve students, citizens and visitors through exhibits, educational programs, publications and special events.The Indian Temple Mound Museum is part of the Heritage Park and Cultural Center which also includes the Camp Walton Schoolhouse Museum, Garnier Post Office Museum, Fort Walton Temple Mound, and the Civil War Exhibit Building. One admission price covers all four museums!
The museum and grounds were happily open, and all staff were knowledgeable and cheerful. There were plenty of exhibits to interest all ages and a few interactive exhibits that were very cool. We enjoyed all of the buildings and would visit again. There is also a gift shop.

Learn of Florida's rich history here.
These other comment are not lying! I've been here dozens of times since my grade school years (the mid-90s) and some parts of it (the walkthrough river boat, grandma's attic, souther farm life displays) are exactly the same and have been perfectly kept up. It's nice that is has a few revolving exhibits to add to the diversity of Florida history (which is rather vast). One of the few places in the state you can see authentic dinosaur bones! The tone of the self-guided museum starts in prehistoric times, to Spanish (later British) occupation, Civil War, onto the World Wards, and parts that reflect general Florida life. Definitely something of interest for the whole family!
