About ZIP 32408
ZIP 32408 sits on the eastern end of Panama City Beach in Bay County, Florida, anchored by the Lower Grand Lagoon and Upper Grand Lagoon communities.

Housing here ranges from canal-front homes with private docks to condo towers along Thomas Drive, giving buyers a mix of full-time residences, second homes, and short-term rental investment properties. The ZIP borders Tyndall Air Force Base to the east and sits just minutes from Pier Park's shopping and dining corridor. Its location between bay and beach makes it appealing to boaters, retirees, and vacation-home buyers who want quieter water access without leaving Panama City Beach's amenities behind.
