The small coastal community of Mexico Beach, located 20 miles east of Panama City on Florida's Undiscovered Gulf Coast, is a serene destination. Mexico Beach offers a small-town atmosphere filled with the charm of the Florida Panhandle. Here, the preserved natural beauty of the land and the sea combine to create a spellbinding destination. Shelling, watching the dolphins play at sunset, and dipping into the Gulf of Mexico for a refreshing swim are favorite pastimes for Mexico Beach visitors and locals. Mexico Beach residents are relaxed and cordial, and the local restaurants, with their fabulous menus, provide the perfect setting to meet with family and friends.
Referred to as 'Mayberry on the Water', the small-town, family-friendly atmosphere has attracted Floridians and out-of-towners alike. As you walk down the street, everyone says hello. As you drive down the street, everyone waves. Hospitality reigns in our sunshine city.
