Things to Do in PCB in December 2021
Sure, Panama City Beach is a top summer destination for a reason, but don’t cast it off so quickly in the winter. There are tons of things to do in PCB in December, whether you’re looking for some holiday fun or more traditional Florida activities. This time of the year is off-season in Panama City Beach, which means that you won’t have large crowds to deal with and you may even find some great local deals and specials.
Here’s a guide to our top things to do in PCB in December.
Winter Fishing
Winter fishing in Panama City Beach offers an entirely new experience for those anglers used to getting out on the water in the summer. As fish move around to find food and warmer water, anglers adjust to those trends. Redfish are common catches in the winter, and trout can be easy to find as well. You’ll often catch larger fish inshore this time of the year as well. Any local fishing charter will help accommodate for the season.
Holiday Tree at City Hall
This year there won't be an in-person tree lighting ceremony, but there will still be a brightly decorated tree at the city hall for all to enjoy. The 38-foot Christmas tree was lit on December 3rd and will remain illuminated through the month of December.
Grand Lagoon Farmers Market
The Grand Lagoon Farmers Market takes place all year round, so no matter what time of the year you come to visit it’s a must. During the winter, the Grand Lagoon Farmers Market at Capt. Andersons Restaurant is on Saturdays and Sundays featuring a wide selection of local produce, baked goods, and more.
Nightlife and Dining
One of the best reasons to visit Panama City Beach in December is the lack of crowds that make restaurants easier to get into and shorter lines at top nightclubs and bars. During peak season you’ll find it challenging to get into some of the top Panama City Beach restaurants, some of which always have a wait or require reservations far ahead of time. Firefly, Runaway Island, and Saltwater Grill are a few of our favorites.
Looking for an after-hours spot? Red Bar, Coyote Ugly, and Tootsie’s Orchid Lounge are always a good time.
