Beach Safety
We want all of our guests to have a fun, memorable vacation. In order for that to happen, they must be SAFE.
Please take a moment to familiarize yourself and your fellow travelers with the Beach Warning Flags and what to do if you are caught in a Rip Current.
The Gulf is beautiful, but it can also be dangerous.
These flags could save your life.

To help keep the world's most beautiful beaches beautiful, a "Leave No Trace" ordinance was issued for Panama City Beach in 2012.
Anything you bring to the beach should also leave the beach. Including, but not limited to tents, chairs, umbrellas, & coolers.
Any items left behind on the beach from 7pm-7am will be removed and disposed of. Please do your part to keep PCB beautiful!
Bay County Ordinance No. 12-14 and 12-37 and City of Panama City Beach Ordinance No. 1242
Save the turtles
During sea turtle nesting season (May 1 to October 31), artificial lights visible from the beach in Panama City Beach are illegal and must be turned off, dimmed, or shielded.
This is to prevent disorientation of nesting turtles and hatchlings, which instinctively head toward the moon's reflection on the water.
Property owners must comply with ordinances requiring low-mounted, long-wavelength (amber, orange, or red), and fully shielded lights.
Visitors should avoid using flashlights or cell phone lights on the beach, and instead use red-filtered lights if necessary.
Panama City Beach Police 850-233-5000 to report a nesting turtle or hatchlings on the beach.
