Whether you’re here for a beach vacation, a long weekend, or a day trip, getting around Panama City Beach without the stress of traffic or parking is a game-changer. That’s where golf carts and ebikes come in, two of the most fun, convenient, and popular transportation options in PCB.
But if you’re asking:
“What’s the best way to get around Panama City Beach, a golf cart or an ebike?”
You’re in the right place.
At Beachside Motorsports, we rent both and we’re breaking down the benefits of each so you can ride smart, ride safe, and make the most of your time in paradise.
If you’re traveling with friends or family, a golf cart makes getting around PCB a breeze. Our street-legal carts seat 4–6 people and give everyone a chance to ride together in comfort and style.
Our golf carts are legal on roads with speed limits of 35 MPH or less and that includes most of Front Beach Road, Thomas Drive, and side streets near popular attractions, restaurants, and beach access points.
Bringing towels, coolers, beach chairs, or shopping bags? A golf cart has plenty of room to stash your gear without cramping your style.
Let’s be honest; cruising around in a golf cart is part of the Panama City Beach experience. Whether it’s a sunset drive or an ice cream run, it’s as fun as it is functional.
Ebikes are ideal for solo travelers or couples looking to explore at their own pace. Skip traffic and park almost anywhere, no need to hunt for a parking spot at Pier Park or scramble for space near beach access.
Not a hardcore cyclist? No problem. Our ebikes come with electric assist, making it easy to cover more ground without breaking a sweat. Go farther, faster – without tiring yourself out.
Explore beautiful trails like Gayle’s Trails, loop through Conservation Park, or take in the ocean breeze on Front Beach Road all from the saddle of a smooth, comfortable electric bike.
Cut down on emissions and explore PCB the green way. Ebikes are one of the most sustainable ways to get around town.
