Take to the Skies, Stroll through the Park, or Hit the Beach. Proposal Ideas for the Perfect Setting to Pop the Question!
Why Panama City, Florida is the Perfect Place to Propose!
Whether it be the place you first met, a place you both fell in love with, or a place that you are both visiting for the first time, the location of your proposal is extremely important. That’s why Panama City, Florida is one of the premier locations in the nation to pop the question!
By land, air, or sea, Panama City has the perfect location for anyone’s proposal. Here are 7 perfect proposal locations to pop the question in and around the beaches of Panama City selected by our team here at Maharaja’s Fine Jewelry!
Hit the Beaches of Panama City For a Pristine Engagement!
1. Panama City Beach
Unlike finding the perfect engagement ring, finding the perfect beach location in or around Panama City to pop the question won’t be difficult, and who doesn’t love perfect beach proposal ideas?! The city itself has miles of beaches both on the Gulf of Mexico and on numerous bays. Panama City Beach is situated directly on the Gulf of Mexico and offers white sandy beaches with incredible views sure to make the moment when you pop the question last a lifetime!
Slightly north up the coast of Panama City Beach is Laguna Beach. Laguna Beach is a hidden gem of sorts. Offering the same white sandy beaches as the beaches of Panama City, it often is less visited by tourists due to it being in such close proximity to Panama City Beach.
2. Florida-30A
Take a cruise down Scenic Highway 30A! This incredible section of highway roughly 30 minutes from Panama City, is referred to as the “Emerald Coast.” This charming strip is filled with vacation activities for all, including shopping, dining, community events, live music, state forests, dune preserves, and more!
Heading north of Panama City, take a pit stop of one of the numerous beaches at your disposal! From east to west, the beaches are located as follows; Inlet Beach, Rosemary Beach, Seacrest Beach, Alys Beach, Old Seacrest Beach, Seagrove Beach, and Grayton Beach.
We recommend stopping at Rosemary Beach or Seacrest Beach for an incredible backdrop to your beach engagement!
Take to the Skies For a Sensational Proposal!
3. Panama City Beach Helicopter Tours
A unique way to get a view of the beaches of Panama City may involve a helicopter tour. A helicopter tour would be the ideal way to get a bird's eye view of the beautiful white sand beaches and other exciting landmarks that make Panama City so beautiful. Having an aerial view of the beach would allow you to write a proposal message in the sand and allow your soon-to-be fiance to get a memorable view during that special engagement moment! Superb!
Stroll Through the Park on Your Way to “I Do!”
4. Pier Park Panama City Beach
Open from 10 AM - 9 PM during the summer months, Pier Park is a fun tourist area featuring shopping, dining, and incredible scenery. Pier Park is a beautiful mall that spans over 2 million square feet, offering over 250 unique dining, shopping, and entertainment experiences.
To add to the amazement of Panama City Beach Pier, it is also in close proximity to the Emerald Coast Beaches. The dining selections offer a wide variety of food, including locally-caught seafood from the Gulf of Mexico. Pier Park offers a unique backdrop for when you propose and allows the celebration to continue on at one of the many dining or entertainment options available.
5. St. Andrews State Park
Panama City is in close proximity to numerous state parks, however, two parks, in particular, would be ideal for a proposal. St. Andrews State Park is situated farther south down the peninsula from Panama City.
This outdoor sanctuary has numerous white sandy beaches and nature trails that can be explored at will. The nature trails can lead to private settings for that special moment. Camping is another draw to this state park.
6. Camp Helen State Park
Continuing further north up the coast is a small state park called Camp Helen State Park. Camp Helen State Park offers many similar features to St. Andrews State Park, such as hiking trails, beaches, and swimming. One of the interesting parts of Camp Helen State Park is the large coastal dune that overlooks Lake Powell.
The benefit of this state park is that it offers access to both Lake Powell and the Gulf of Mexico. This slightly more secluded area would allow for more privacy during your special moment. Also being directly off of US Highway 98, it is a relatively easy location to get to.
Are You Imagining an Island Oasis To Pop the Question?!
7. Shell Island
Shell Island is direct across the mouth of the bay from St. Andrews State Park. The island itself offers pristine beaches and gorgeous blue waters and is only a short boat ride away from St. Andrews State Park. Catch a quick boat shuttle from St. Andrews and in no time you will be immersed in the incredible scenery, offering views of St. Andrews State Park and Panama City. Shell Island offers a few unique activities such as boat rentals, dolphin tours, and snorkeling. Shell Island will offer a great backdrop that will highlight that incredible engagement ring.
