Your guide to the quiet west end of Panama City Beach

Sunnyside occupies the peaceful west end of Panama City Beach, offering a quieter alternative to the busy central strip along Front Beach Road. This laid-back community sits near Camp Helen State Park and the rare coastal dune lakes of the western Panhandle, attracting visitors who prefer a more tranquil beach experience while still being a short drive from PCB's main attractions at Pier Park.

The west end dining scene features locally owned seafood restaurants, casual beach bars, and family-friendly spots that feel more like neighborhood favorites than tourist traps. Outdoor enthusiasts appreciate the proximity to Camp Helen, conservation areas, and the uncrowded stretches of beach that define this side of Panama City Beach.
