KY and IN Seafood Fans: Here Are The 10 Best Places to Get Seafood in PCB!

For beach lovers in Kentucky and Indiana, one of the most popular vacation destinations is Panama City Beach, Florida. There's no doubt that the 'sugar white' sand beaches are the big calling card. However, vacationers also love the chance to come to the Gulf and enjoy some incredible seafood. You can find it on just about every intersection of Front Beach Road. Seafood restaurants are like Alvin's Island and Surf Style. They're everywhere!

I just spent a few days in PCB and decided to consult the experts. First, I asked my friend Kyra, who was born and raised in Panama City Beach. She now serves as the Director of Marketing for various Holiday Inn properties. I asked Kyra to name her favorite seafood place in the area. Naturally, just like a local, she chose a place most tourists wouldn't consider. She loves the Local Steamer Seafood Market.

Pro tip! Kyra highly recommends the Famous Platter for One. It comes with 10 Jumbo Peeled Deveined Shrimp and 1 Cluster of Snow Crab, Corn, Sausage, Potatoes, Hot Butter and 'Our Famous Local Spice.' **According to their website, this is what made Local Steamer famous.

But where are the tourists going? What are they preferring?

I have lots of friends back home in Kentucky who swear by two places in particular- Pineapple Willy's and Sharky's. Because of their popularity among PCB fans in Kentucky and Indiana, I fully anticipated seeing those inside the Tripadvisor Top 10. But, that didn't happen. Pineapple Willy's ranks 17th. Sharky's comes in at #20.

So, which seafood restaurants in PCB cracked the Top 10 like a lobster shell? Take a look!
