Myself and a few buddies of mine are going to spring break this year for the first time in Panama city. I had a few questions about when to go. Technically my Spring break doesnt start until april 6th but i know thats pretty late in the spring break season. How much different is the week of the 6th to the 10th going to be from say the middle of march in terms of fun and craziness? Because im actually the only one in school and everyone else graduated so we'd be willing to go in march sometime contingent on me not having any midterms or anything. Also whats the best combinations of 5 days to head down there? would a friday to tuesday combo be betterr than say a thrusday to monday? or wednesday to sunday?
Also is the boardwalk condos 25 year min for only the person who's paying for the room? or does everyone have to be over 25? because we have one 25 year old in the group and the rest are 22-24 yrs

Well pretty much all the vendors on the beach will be gone, the weather will likely be nicer, but the crowds will be far less crowded. Not to mention that is High School spring break time, so you will have FAR more 16-19 year olds!

oh man, that sucks! so when do the vendors close up shop? If we go from March friday the 20th to tuesday the 24th will we catch the vendors and all the crowd?

Yea those 4 days are still pretty much in a peak weak !

The buziest week will be the 15th-21st, so the 20th-24th should be a great time to go head down to PCB. Middle of April will be nothing like middle of March. April's crowds are mostly teenaged high school students on some sort of Easter break which will make it a bit harder to find older groups.

As for the Boardwalk Condos, you will only need ONE 25 year-old in your group to be able to book there. I'm actually staying in the same place and was able to find a cheaper Boardwalk condo on vrbo.com than what we found at the resort's main website.

Good luck!
