Best Shopping Malls, Outlet and Places in Destin Area

"Famished, these two landlubbers set out to reel in some breakfast at Pier Park, a 900,000-square-foot entertainment and shopping complex across from the Panama City Beach Pier. When you ask previous visitors what to do in Panama City Beach, they'll usually point you in this direction. A couple of soy vanilla lattes and chocolate croissants later and we were ready to take on the town, or rather, the links."

"Pier Park truly has something for everyone, from shops to restaurants to entertainment and more. Start by picking out something new for your wardrobe at a shop like Target, Old Navy, or Francesca’s. Then, grab a snack from Auntie Anne’s or sit down to a meal at Back Porch Seafood and Oyster House or Margaritaville."
