If U'r in a hurry, I'd stay on I-10 all the way over to the Marianna exit & down Rt.73/71. Thats a bit farther tho. If not in a big hurry, I'd take I-10 & exit just past Pensacola, down 87 to 98 along the coast. Beautiful drive thru some, very picturesque, coast towns. Many beach access State parks along the way. Going thru Panama City is no big deal. Have plenty of Non-DEET bug spray with you at St Joe.
