Need a great place to go hiking with your dog? St Andrews State Park, located 3 miles east of Panama City Beach, off of Thomas Drive, is a great place to go. A couple of months ago, I took my rottweiler there. We loved it!
This is more of a dog-friendly place versus an all pet-friendly place.
If you like to go camping, you can take your dogs with you. There are some rules to keep everyone happy and safe. You can read those rules at their website here http://www.floridastateparks.org/standrews/Activities.cfm
Unfortunately, pets are not allowed on the beach, in the wetlands or on the playground. But they are allowed on the hiking trails, bike trails and in the picnic area. B loved walking the soft sand along the trail. Keep in mind to have plenty of water and potty bags ready for your pet as these are not available. Also, there are mosquitoes present and your dog needs to be on heartworm preventative. All it takes is one mosquito and your beloved furred friend could be in danger. Another thing to be aware of is how hot the sand is. Since we, as humans, wear shoes most of the time, we don't take that into consideration. So remember to keep your pet in the shade as much as you can.
There is an admission fee and at the time of this research, it was $5.00 a vehicle.
