Things to do nearLighthouse Marina

    Lighthouse Marina is a full-service waterfront marina on North Lagoon Drive in Panama City Beach, Florida, offering boat access, fishing charters, and easy reach of the Gulf.

    Lighthouse Marina sits on North Lagoon Drive in Panama City Beach, Florida, positioned along a sheltered stretch of water that connects boaters to both Grand Lagoon and the broader St. Andrew Bay system. The marina has served recreational boaters and serious anglers for years, offering wet slips, fuel, and the kind of no-fuss waterfront culture that defines this corner of the Florida Panhandle.

    Fishing is central to life at Lighthouse Marina. The Gulf of Mexico lies a short run away, and the waters around Panama City Beach are known for red snapper, grouper, and king mackerel. You can book fishing charters directly from the marina, with options ranging from half-day nearshore trips to full-day offshore expeditions.

    Beyond fishing, the marina's location makes it a practical launch point for boat tours and rentals. A short cruise east brings you to St. Andrews State Park, one of the most celebrated natural areas on the Gulf Coast, with clear water and untouched shoreline worth the trip on its own.

    The overall atmosphere at Lighthouse Marina is laid-back and genuine, more working waterfront than resort dock. For anyone wanting direct, easy access to Panama City Beach waters without the crowds of larger facilities, it remains a dependable and rewarding base.
