St. Andrews State Park

Fodor's Review:

At the eastern tip of Panama City Beach, the 1,260-acre park includes beaches, pinewoods, and marshes. Complete camping facilities are here and a snack bar, too, as well as places to swim, pier-fish, and hike on clearly marked nature trails. Board a ferry to Shell Island —a 700-acre barrier island in the Gulf of Mexico with some of the best shelling north of Sanibel Island. A rock jetty creates a calm, shallow play area that is perfect for young children. Come to this spectacular park for a peek at what the entire beach area looked like before developers sank their claws into it.

  • Cost: $5 per vehicle, up to 8 people
