17 Best Ice Cream Shops near Watersound

“Went to Nigels for the first time - was passing it in Seaside and could not resist. I think this will be a weekly trip!!!!!! The dipped ice-cream bar was so GOOD!!!!“

“The staff was extremely kind and the restaurant was very clean. They have good portions especially for the price. I got the orange chicken with fried rice and egg roll and it was honestly the best I’ve ever had. It’s unlike any I’ve had before, but in a great way. The orange chicken was plated on two fresh orange slices and had charred orange peel and chili pepper in the sauce. Everything was extremely fresh. We had the Reese’s Happiness and Peach Bliss rolled ice cream afterwards and 10/10 would recommend! We will definitely be back next time we’re in PCB!“

“The staff here is AMAZING! Sent a message earlier making sure they had safe options for my son (he has a peanut allergy.) When we walked in they recognized us and were so helpful and thoughtful. They even took extra precautions to wash hands and change gloves to make sure to avoid cross contamination. My mama heart is forever grateful! We can’t wait to come back here every visit! Thank you so much!“

“We stopped into Kilwins in Rosemary Beach and were greeted by a very polite and helpful young man. They have buy one get one fudge bars right now and they offer tastings. The ice cream is always great. Our favorites are the sea salt caramel, coconut, and espresso. Go visit this shop, you won’t be disappointed :)“

“Such a fun stop during my best friend’s bachelorette trip! The ice cream was delicious, but the highlight was definitely Matthew! He was so kind and friendly and made our visit even better. Shoutout to him as he starts college this week—we’re wishing him the BEST of luck! 🎓😊 We’ll definitely be back!“

“I had a great time. To be able to walk out the back door and be right on the beach was everything. We will be coming back again.“

“The best snow cones ever!“

“I didn’t get the name of the girl working today but she was so kind. Split up one cup into two for my much smaller children who don’t want to share but also don’t need a whole one to themselves. All around just a great experience.“

“30A is the place to be I came down with my family to catch the ending of summer it’s a vibe. The scenery is great , family oriented, pet friendly and everyone is just pleasant.
I’ve never tried gelato before and New Orleans style snowballs and it was great, loved the texture etc.
The sales rep Monique was very attentive and pleasant she changed my life with that butterfinger.“

“Great place to stop! No complaints on the ice cream, but wish the scoop size was a little larger for the price. We went in on a hot day while waiting on a restaurant. Contrary to what I’ve seen in some reviews service was friendly and attentive as soon as we came in. Gave samples for both us and our kids, and was helpful with any questions we had. Covered porch was a nice shaded spot to sit out of the sun, and gave room for the kids to run around. Would do back if we were in the area.“

“The world’s best donuts!!! The cream filled donuts from Charlie’s are by far our all-time favorite. I only get one every three or 4 years when we go to the beach… sad, but probably best that they are there and not near our home!“

“My favorite breakfast place!“

“We love Marble Slab! The line was long but it moved quickly and all the staff were so friendly!“

“Couple high points for this shop. 1. It is close to the Main Street and has the AC pumping. 2. Great selection of salt water taffy and a cooler of nice handmade chocolate treats.
3. All of the retro candy you would want, including candy cigarettes, which felt a little taboo, but hilarious to show our kids how to enjoy them.
The vibe is a little younger kiddy, but is fun for most ages.“

“We love this cute little lunch spot in beautiful Carillon! Several of our employees have eaten here while in the neighborhood delivering rental carts and the food has always been delicious with outstanding service!“

“The workers were so friendly! Had a great time doing a personal Bible study and then had a great conversation with the staff. They love God and love people without a doubt! Such a friendly and loving atmosphere this will be the coffee shop I go to any time I’m in Panama City Beach!“
