Surrounded on three sides by water, Pensacola offers access to white-sand beaches and emerald-green ocean unspoiled by large resorts. Located at the western tip of the Florida Panhandle, this city of about 50,000 draws ocean-lovers with prime fishing and boating in an area protected as a National Seashore. The downtown and surrounding areas feature historical buildings, seafood restaurants, and congenial pubs. Museums in and around town detail the region's rich naval history. Make the most of your holiday in Pensacola by finding out about its attractions and choosing what to see using our United States road trip tool.
