🌊 St. Andrews Bay (Florida)

St. Andrew Bay, colloquially called "St. Andrews Bay", is a bay located in Bay County in the panhandle of Florida. It is a 69,000-acre estuary located in northwest Florida. It is relatively deep, and of relatively high salinity due to the low freshwater inflow provided by only a few spring-fed creeks. The bay is named for Saint Andrew. Panama City, the county seat of Bay County, is located on the bay. The Atlanta & St. Andrews Bay Railway, which ran from Panama City to Dothan, Alabama, was also named for the bay.
