Best route from Nashville to Panama City Beach Florida It seems there is no direct route from the north. I would love to hear suggestions on the best rout there.

Join Date: Jan 2008 Posts: 79,548 Is this a trick question? PCB is pretty much directly south of Nashville. Get on 65 and drive for 285 miles. Then you can take 331 until you get to 98 and make a left turn. If you've not driven through the communities on 30a, do that. It's the
prettiest part of Florida - much prettier than PCB. Original Poster

I know to take 65 to Montgomery, but from there it gets a little less clear. It looks like 331 is a very windy road, andthere are many other options at that point. I was just looking for the quickest route without going through a million stop lights and tons of traffic.
Join Date: Jan 2008 Posts: 79,548 "It looks like 331 is a very windy road" Once you get off interstates, roads become less straight - unless you are out west. Where are you from, where secondary roads are not "windy"? Roads connect communities and follow the contours of the land. Nashville to PCB is a straight shot, with three turns = not bad for almost 400+ miles. Original Poster

I do know secondary roads are not straight, but as in any area of the country, some are easier to drive than others. All I was asking is for advice on the best route. I google mapped the trip and it used the same route, but that does not mean it is always the BEST route. Thanks.
Join Date: Jan 2008 Posts: 79,548 louky, I've not driven from Nashville to PCB. But one would be hard pressed to find a route that's not a straighter shot - it's due south of Nashville. I HAVE driven virtually every road south of I-10 in the Panhandle and can't think of a road to caution you against. I don't see how 331 is considered "windy" either, so perhaps you should just ignore my routing and find another one.
