  2. WonderWorks

    Designed to look like an upside-down building (complete with an upside-down lawn and palm trees), this wacky new interactive museum and fun center is impossible to miss – even if you want to! While hands-on exhibits like a spinning g-force bike, an obstacle climbing course and virtual reality soccer may give some grown-ups a migraine, kids will have a blast (literally, in the case of the laser tag maze!).

  3. Ripley's Believe It or Not!

    Love it or hate it, the ubiquitous Ripley's is very Panama City Beach – loud, crowded, tacky-but-fun. In a building designed to look like a ship, the 'odditorium' features bizarro exhibits like a replica of the world's tallest man and an Amazonian shrunken head (believe it? Or not?). There's also laser tag, and an IMAX with seats that shake.

  4. Museum of Man in the Sea

    Owned by the Institute of Diving, this museum takes a close look at the sport. Interactive exhibits let you crank up a Siebe pump, climb into a Beaver Mark IV submersible, check out models of the underwater laboratory Sealab III, and find out how diving bells really work. There's also a cool collection of old diving suits and a sea life–filled aquarium.
