Golfing at Panama City Beach

Golfers will find eight 18-hole layouts and two nine-hole courses in Panama City Beach. Most welcome the public.

One of Panama City Beach’s best-kept secrets was revealed when Golf Digest Magazine named Panama City Beach the third best golf town in the country. Golf enthusiasts have long known that the best sand and water action in Panama City Beach is found just off the shoreline at the area’s five championship golf courses.

According to Golf Digest Magazine, Panama City Beach earned their top spot in this ranking. While researching the list of the best golf destinations in the United States, each area’s “golfability” was considered. Golfability includes four major factors: the number of courses per capita, the average greens fees, the star ratings/ difficulty rankings and weather (temperature, humidity, wind & precipitation). These factors determine the number of golfable days per year.

Panama City Beach’s estimated 320 days of sunny blue skies per year, a year-round average temperature of 74 degrees, a population-to-course average of 17, five challenging, championship golf courses and an average greens fee of $46.80, pushed this seaside destination to the top of the list.
