Get Set to Jet
You like to chart your own course. Why not enjoy a day on the water with an unguided jet ski tour? Feel the Gulf spray and the warm sun as you sail across the waves on a Yamaha Vx110. Cruise to nearby Shell Island, where dolphins frolic close to the shore in the famous emerald green waters.
Reach New Heights

You love to seek out a new perspective, and you’ll like what you see soaring high above the beach.The brilliant, sugary white coastline and beautiful turquoise waters of Panama City Beach offer a heavenly view.
Need for Speed
You’re often accused of being a little wild. Book an airboat tour through Airboats Gone Wild and explore a labyrinth of creeks, islands, and marshes inaccessible to other modes of transportation. Feel the wind in your face as you tear through the water at speeds approaching Mach 10. They’ll take you off the beaten path where the wildest of wildlife dwells.
