Panama City Beach FL – Which States Love us the Most?
With the Summer 2012 season booking up quickly, we thought it would be interesting to take a closer look at which states spend the most time researching and planning vacations to Panama City Beach.
These trends sometimes change throughout the year – especially during peak seasonal times (winter, for example, sees a lot more interest from “snowbirds” looking to escape the bitter cold and thaw out in the relatively mild Florida sunshine). The statistics below are based on averages taken from the past 12 months.

Where are YOU visiting us from?
We speak with guests here at the Sandpiper all the time who tell us they have driven nearly half way across the country to stay with us. Often, flights for larger groups like families with kids isn’t the most economical option, so making a road trip makes more sense. People travel from all over the World to experience Panama City Beach, but it should come as no surprise that the majority travel from within driving distance (Florida, Georgia, Alabama, Tennessee).
Wherever you are visiting us from, domestic or abroad – we continually strive to provide you with a fun, action-packed family vacation here on the World’s Most Beautiful Beaches, and we look forward to seeing you soon 🙂
