    We decided to check out the park on a day when our condo's beach was extremely crowded, and we're so glad we did! The beaches here are clean, uncrowded, and perfect for families with small kids. There is a calm area in the jetties where little kids can swim safely, and there's also an area with waves for boogie boards. The next time we visit PCB, we'll definitely plan on bringing out a canopy and making full day beach trips here.

    Pier Park is a very touristy street across for the Panama Beach Pier. #-4 blocks long with many shops, restaurants and bars A local Jeep car show lined the street the night we were there.

    We had a great family day thanks to the Shell Island Shuttle. The captain and host were very kind, friendly, fun, and informative. We got to Shell Island very fast which was our goal. Had a great time on the island. Coming back we even saw dolphins. They have room to sit your coolers, chairs, and tent down so you don’t have to hold them. It was amazing. I definitely recommend this.

    This is a great place to take the kids on a day trip while in PCB. We stop here every year! I love that you can load money on a wrist band and not worry about carrying your wallet.

    It’s a must while you’re in the area. Your kids will love it!

    It's not huge, but it pays off. especially for younger kids. Their timing of events kept you waiting now and then, but the dolphin show was well worth it. The staff was everywhere, and they care about the animals. Worth the visit.

    It was a fun and unusual museum. Lots of interesting facts and items to browse through. Entertaining for both adults and of course the kiddos.

    The Hall of Mirrors was pretty fun...I got so confused for awhile, finally had to hang on to my friends shirt as she made her way through. The dance room was a blast. LOLOLOL old people and our discos!

    The 7D movie was just meh. Younger kids would love it though. We did the space aliens which wasn't really anything at all so I'm wondering what the zombies would have been like.

    But is it touristy...yes, and it was fun!

    Definitely worth taking a trip to Conservation Park, there are more trails to hike than most will have time for. We didn't see much wildlife, but the park was beautiful.

    Elvis is in the building!!!! Todd is a great performer along with his son, wife and band. The trumpet player is really really good. If you love Elvis you will definitely want to see this show.
