Florida Pahandle | American auto transport destinations

After the Civil War, residents of the Florida Peninsula offered the state's western arm to Alabama for a million dollars, but Alabama's state leaders rejected the offer, calling the region "a sand bank and gopher region." But, despite its early reputation, the Florida panhandle has developed into a region dominated by military and coastal developments.

Eglin Air Force Base, Hurlburt Field, Naval Air Station Pensacola, and several other bases are in the panhandle. Significant towns include Pensacola, state capitol Tallahassee, Destin, Fort Walton Beach, Seaside, and many others. In recent decades, coastal development has boomed in the panhandle, so that now very little beachfront propery is untouched, the only exceptions being land owned by the government. The beaches of the Gulf coast are very different from those of the Atlantic Coast. The waters are warm, and the soft sands extend far out into the sea, you can wade hundreds of feet away from the shore without the water becoming deep.

The beaches of the panhandle, most notably Daytona Beach and Panama City, are the most popular destinations for spring break every march, when hundreds of thousands of university students inhabit the peaches and make the area into one giant non-stop party.
