From the panama city/ destin beach area? We are heading down that way mid October. We are planning on staying for 5-7 days and driving, probably the Hoe, so we can be mobil. A day or two in Orlando may also be in the cards.

The beaches in the panhandle are the nicest, unless you wanna surf then Daytona is pretty good

Destin, panama city, pensecola, all good ones, Destin is more of a resort area you should be able to find a nice hotel

The east coast is my favorite beaches ! If its you and your wife I think St.Augustine is the best . Theres alot to do and just an hour from daytona and I think you can still drive on the beach at daytona.

Daytona is a great beach but the water at the panhandle is crystal clear

That's what I am shooting for. My wife and kids have never seen an ocean and I don't want to take them to a wavy lake, Otherwise I would just hit Galveston. Panhandle it is

Mike, the panhandle aka the emerald coast is prettier than the east coast (daytona) in my opinion. and, i would suggest destin over pensecola and panama city beach. in addition, the east coast is a lot rougher (bigger waves and undercurrent) than the panhandle. the panhandle is about 6 to 7 hours for us tampa bay area guys, and orlando is about 1 to 1-1/2 hours.
Palm Harbor to Panama City is 6 hours 17 minutes...
Palm Harbor to Orlando <1 hour
