Once you are on 231 get off at Troy,AL(state road AL-167) go to Enterprise, AL and then go to Panama City Beach(state road AL-167 to state road FL-79). You'll save almost an hour of travel time. If you stay on 231 all the way you have to go through panama city which is slower. It is an easy shortcut, if you stay on AL-167 which turns into FL-79 at the state lines it will bring you to the west end of panama city beach. I've taken this way 10-15 times when I go back to visit Illinois.

Also there are usually fewer cops on 167-79, 231 has a cop every 10 or 15 miles(or so it seems) on the drive down and back up.
