About this map

Panama City Beach and the coastal communities of Laguna Beach and Hollywood Beach anchor the southern edge of this West Florida landscape. The terrain is defined by its coastal hydrology, where Powell Lake meets the Gulf of Mexico at Philips Inlet. Moving inland, the environment transitions from developed beachfronts to more primitive wetlands and waterways, including Doe Head Swamp, Marshall Swamp, and the winding Broomstraw Br.

Infrastructure like the Intracoastal Waterway cuts through the center of the region, providing a critical transportation corridor near the small settlement of Laird. Extensive trail systems, such as the Panama City Conservation Park Trl and the Florida Circumnavigational Paddling Trl, reflect the area's modern emphasis on conservation and recreation. The north is characterized by lower density and larger tracts, notable for family-named features like Seminole Hills and the remote Poley Islands.
