The Florida panhandle is an amazing place! White sand beaches and pine forests for days. I grew up spending summers here and have now returned to raise my children.

Wonderful beach front dining. Great food. Good prices. And swimsuits welcome. Perfect for the after the beach meal or to grab a drink while you're on the beach.

Amazing! My daughter and I ordered dumplings and Rangoons and sushi. Then we ordered more and more of everything. We took so much food home, but got a huge variety from each section of the menu. Every dish was perfection!
Thai Street Food by Chef Eddy
Amazing, beautiful dishes. Anime fans' perfect spot. They have anime on the TVs and sell all kinds of merch. Plus, the dishes are named after all things anime. Don't miss the Bomb Rangoons!

Things To Do
Nice mall. Great way to spend a hot or stormy day. Something for everyone.
Cordova Mall
Love, love, love this beach! Lots of shopping and restaurants right on the white sugar sand beach. Don't miss the Bushwhacker Festival! Trolley service is available if you're staying farther off the beach.
Pensacola Beach
If you're in FL, you can't miss shopping at Publix. Always clean and well stocked with nice variety. They have $5 sushi Wednesdays. Since my kids like California rolls, this is their special treat.
Where Shopping is a Pleasure
Always a fun time. Not only can you see the show, but they practice throughout the year. Kids go crazy for it.

Great towels! Lightweight and absorbent 100% cotton. With 6 people, it's hard to lug all that beach gear. These towels save so much space. They also have loops to hang them up easily to dry.
Slowtide Absorbent Beach Towel 30x60 (Ripe)
I love this repellent! It smells good and I don't worry about DEET. It works well, but can be a little greasy so be careful when spraying your feet.
