Abi And Ryan's Guidebook
Sightseeing
The beach is absolutely beautiful! We recommend Fort Pickens if trying to avoid large crowds. If you’re looking for a busy scene, the boardwalk or casino beach are the places to go.

City advice
What to pack
Beach must haves!
Make sure you bring a swim suit, a cover up, some sun screen, some towels, and a small cooler for drinks and snacks.
Don't miss
Palafox Market is a must!
The Palafox market is every Saturday morning from 9am-noon on Palafox Street and Garden Street in downtown Pensacola. There is so many local goods to get!
Getting around
Uber is the best way to get around without a car.
We are not very big on public transportation here, so Uber is the best way to get around.
