Golf Cart Rental Tips: How to Make the Most of Your Ride Around 30A and Panama City Beach

Exploring 30A by golf cart is truly one of the best ways to soak up the area's personality and natural beauty. Whether you're cruising along the beach, checking out local shops, or grabbing a bite at one of the many restaurants, a golf cart gives you the freedom to roam at your own pace. To make the most of your rental, here are some tips for a smooth and fun adventure!



Beach and Bay Golf Cart Rental

1. Choose the Right Cart for Your Crew

So first things first, plan what size group you have and what kind of day you want to have. If you’ve got the whole family or a group of friends with you, opt for a large 6-seater golf cart that comfortably fits everyone. And if you're planning a full day of adventure, a cart with extra features like a phone charger or Bluetooth speakers—will make the day even better. “Nothing says ‘vacation vibes’ like a perfect playlist!”


At Beach & Bay Golf Cart Rentals, we offer 6-seater street legal golf carts to suit your entire crew fully equipped with Bluetooth Speaker & LED Lights, we’ve got you covered. 



2. Take Advantage of a Stress Free Golf Cart Delivery and Pick-Up in Panama City Beach and 30A Areas

One of the great perks of renting your cart with Beach & Bay Golf Cart Rentals is our convenient delivery and pick-up service. Just imagine, walking out the door and hopping directly into your waiting golf cart with your keys ready to roll! No dealing with a crowded line, diagnosis forms, or trumped-up sales pitches at the store. With Beach & Bay, just walk out the front door of your vacation home, exchange the keys, and it's off to the beach you go!


And when the trip is over, we’ll pick it up! It’s like valet parking but for your cart—because who wants to deal with logistics when you’re soaking up the last bit of beach time? 


This makes the entire rental process stress-free from start to finish, leaving you with more time to enjoy the beauty of Panama City Beach and HWY 30A and the many beaches it offers like Santa Rosa Beach and Seagrove Beach.



3. Plan Scenic Routes Ahead of Time

One little bit of route planning opens up the entirety of 30A full of stunning views and hidden gems! Don’t forget to hang out at Pier Park on the East end of HWY 30A. Pier Park in Panama City Beach has tons of fun and food for your group! There are escape rooms, mega milkshakes, Ferris wheel, Margaritaville, a movie theater, lots of shopping, and so much more! 


From the white-sand beaches to the quaint streets of Seagrove Beach and Santa Rosa Beach, there’s a lot to explore. What makes it even better is having a golf cart to hop on and off to explore different spots where street legal golf carts like ours are permitted.


Pack a picnic, stop at one of the many beautiful parks or beach spots and enjoy the easy-going, beachy vibe. After all, “It’s not just about the destination—it’s about all the fun stops along the way!”

4. Respect Local Laws and Safety Tips


While driving a golf cart is fun and easy, it’s important to remember that you’re sharing the road with others. Stick to the designated routes, follow the local city traffic rules, and watch out for pedestrians. 


Also, if it's your first time taking the wheel of a cart, take a few minutes to get comfortable with how it handles. Beach & Bay golf carts are fully equipped with safety features like seatbelts, turn signal, and standard height for extra room. 



5. Take Your Time and Enjoy

The best part of exploring 30A and Panama City Beach in a golf cart? You’re on vacation time! 


There is no rush, no traffic jam, and no worries about parking. You can stop where you like, explore at your own pace, and rely in the laid-back vibe that makes the Gulf Coast so special. 


Whether you’re using your cart to hop from beach to beach or explore local spots, the most important thing is to relax and have fun. After all, “Life’s too short for boring rides—go make some memories!”


So, plan your itinerary, book your golf cart, and get ready for a happy ride!
