Description

WonderWorks is an amusement park for the mind with 29,000 square feet of "edutainment." The attraction combines education and entertainment with more than 100 hands-on exhibits that challenge the mind and spark the imagination.

WonderWorks Panama City Beach exhibits include the death-defying bed of nails, wonder coasters, a bubble lab, an indoor glow-in-the-dark ropes course, astronaut training gyros, and more!

WonderWorks began as a top-secret research laboratory on a remote island in the Bermuda Triangle. As legend has it, the world’s greatest scientists, led by Professor Wonder, were given the task of creating a man-made tornado and harnessing its power. This experiment gone awry ripped the laboratory from its foundation and carried it to Front Beach Road in Panama City Beach, Florida, where it landed upside down. Luckily, all of the exhibits remained intact and available for visitors to explore.

Step inside the inversion tunnel and be turned right side up to begin your journey. Once you are properly aligned for your adventure, family fun awaits.

This was our first time at Wonder Works and we had a lot of fun. Everything is interactive or VR with a mix of science and circus attraction throughout the 4 floors. They have rides, games, laser tag. There's food and drink. Great activity for a break from the sun or on a rainy day.

"Several hands on amusements"
TripAdvisor user rating 3 out of 5

From the outside this building looks like it’s going to be a huge place inside, but it’s not as big as I expected. We went on a Monday afternoon- it was busier than I thought it would be. There are several hands on amusements for both kids and adults. I’m not sure it’s worth the price they are charging for admission. We only spent 40 total in there, but to be fair, we didn’t do everything they offered. They do offer activities like a ropes course, bumper cars, laser tag, etc.. but without doing those things it took us 40 minutes. If you do these other activities i’m sure you would spend more time in there. We had a 15 year old with us and he wasn’t interested in doing those things. Overall, it was a decent amusement for us and probably worth going if you small kids and you are sick of the beach or dealing with inclement weather.

We enjoy taking a break from the sun or rainy weather here with our children while visiting the beach. Our favorite activities are the ropes course and laser tag. We have a tall 3 (almost 4) yo and 6 yo who loved doing both this year.
