Each year as the birds fly South for the winter, residents of Canada and the Northern-United States make their way to the beaches of Panama City Beach as well. PCB has grown accustomed to these seasonal visitors who have been deemed “Snowbirds.” To continue enticing snowbirds to travel to the white-sand shores and emerald coast Panama City Beach offers many great deals as well as many events and activities.
“Panama City Beach offers a REAL.FUN.BEACH. experience on a year round basis,” states Dan Rowe, president and CEO of the Panama City Beach Convention & Visitors Bureau. “Each winter, thousands of visitors descend upon our beach for months at a time and more and more are hosting friends and family during their stay. We are a huge hit with grandchildren.”
