Critter Corner Spotlight: Fighting Conchs In Panama City Beach

by Captain Chris, Flippin’ Awesome Adventures

PANAMA CITY BEACH - Fighting conchs, with their strong, spiral-shaped shells, are a fascinating species found in the shallow waters of Panama City Beach. These conchs are often seen burrowing in the sand or slowly moving along the ocean floor. While they may appear docile, they are known for their aggressive behavior when defending their territory from other conchs. Despite their name, fighting conchs are harmless to humans and are an important part of the local ecosystem, helping to clean up detritus. Keep an eye out for these hard-shelled creatures during your next beach or boat adventure! Stay Flippin’ Awesome! Learn more at:
