October and November here in Panama City Beach are perfect because you can enjoy the uncannily warm weather while also getting your fill of all things Fall. Whether you want to hit a pumpkin patch or spend your day at one of our many fall events, we have just the thing for you.
Camp Helen State Park Pumpkin Patch
Camp Helen is known for having one of the biggest pumpkin patches in the area every year! The patch is filled with all sorts of pumpkins from the large orange ones you're just dying to carve to the tiny white ones that make cute indoor decorations. It's also the perfect opportunity to grab a picture surrounded by pumpkins with the greenery of the park hanging above you. There's also fun picture opportunities for any kids you may have with you!
Events
Events like the Grand Lagoon Bloody Mary & Music Fest and Emerald Coast Cruizin' Car Show are both great opportunities to get outside and enjoy the sunshine. Bloody Mary Fest is at the Sheraton PCB Golf & Spa Resort on November 7. Local eateries come together to compete for the title of "Best Bloody Mary in the Grand Lagoon." The best part? You get to walk around and sample all of the unique and delicious Bloody Marys at the festival! Emerald Coast Cruizin' takes places November 11-14 at Aaron Bessant Park and is perfect for vintage car lovers. People from all over come to check out these cars!
