📍 Local Knowledge

Panama City Beach in Florida is an exposed beach break with reliable surf, primarily working during hurricane season. Windswells are the dominant source of waves, with the best conditions occurring when a south-southeast swell combines with offshore winds from the north. The break offers both left and right-hand waves and is not significantly affected by the tide. While it can get crowded when working, surfers should be cautious of rips and sharks. The most consistent clean waves are found in winter, with February being the prime month.
