Family Fun at Pier Park in Panama City Beach, Florida
After getting settled in our hotel at Hampton Inn and Suites we headed over to an evening of fun and food at Pier Park. If you haven’t been following along be sure to check out our Gulf Coast Road Trip Overview so you can see what we experienced up to this point.
What is Pier Park?
Pier Park is a shopping center filled with stores, restaurants and activities for all ages.
Our experiences
We drove to Pier Park from our hotel, it took around 5 minutes to get there.
We went during the evening right before dinner time. Our goal was to find some food which we saw many great restaurants but the wait times were very long. We kept looking for shorter wait times before going ahead and putting our name down for Margaritaville.
We had an hour or so wait but thankfully there were all kinds of interesting stores and activities to keep us entertained until then.
Super Bungee
Cale was passed out asleep in the stroller and Cash was antsy to do something. We signed him up to do the trampoline jump activity at Super Bungee.
He had a blast. After many jumps we convinced him to do a flip even though he was nervous. It was a great way to keep us all entertained while we waited.
After some more shopping our table was ready at Margaritaville.
Margaritaville
Margaritaville is more than just a restaurant. The outlandish decor and entertaining staff make it stand out I’m comparison to other restaurants.
The first thing to catch our boys eyes was the balloon maker waking around on stilts. Their eyes lit up and were eagerly waiting to receive a balloon hat.
After dinner we headed back to the hotel. Pier Park was fun and many people stuck around to shop and play. We were tired and ready to get some rest because the next day Kayla and I were going on out to have our own romantic day while my in-laws kept the boys.
