Year round events take place on Panama City Beach, from swimming, diving and water polo to national softball tournaments, baseball world series. Ruby, cheerleading, judo, volleyball, karate, soccer, triathlons, and Iron Man Florida are just a few of the many sporting activities that have made Panama City Beach one of the top destinations around the country.
