I live an hour north of Pensacola Beach. Not a big Pensacola Beach fan. Way too crowded. We go to Destin. Have camped at Henderson Beach State Park there. LOVE this place!!!

Panama City... nope. Went last August. Will never go back. The hotel had bugs!

Biting flies at the beach. Tourists EVERYWHERE!

I would love to try Rosemary Beach or something in between Destin and Rosemary.

If you do end up somewhere around Panama City, there's a restaurant north of town called Boon Docks. We ate there and loved it. Good food, great atmosphere!
