About this map

Panama City Beach and the coastal communities of Laguna Beach and Hollywood Beach line the northern Gulf of Mexico, where modern recreational development meets a complex network of coastal wetlands. The landscape is defined by the proximity of Powell Lake to the shoreline, separated only by a narrow strip of land at Philips Inlet. This proximity creates a unique brackish environment where freshwater systems transition into the Gulf of America.

Further inland, the Intracostal Waterway carves through a low-lying terrain dominated by named wetlands like Doe Head Swamp and Marshall Swamp. The map details an extensive trail network, including the Panama City Conservation Park Trl and the Florida Circumnavigational Padding Trl, which navigate the pine flatwoods and cypress strands. Small inland settlements such as Laird and Seminole Hills stand as quiet counterparts to the busier coastal corridor.
