What makes this property unique
Bid-A-Wee Beach Receives Historical Marker -
Bid-A-Wee Beach in Panama City Beach, Florida, has a unique history rooted in a desire to preserve its natural state. The 2,500-foot stretch of beach, now a designated Florida heritage site, was initially acquired by Harry Cailey in 1926 under the Homestead Act and later sold to Dr. Grover and Eula Miller. Eula Miller named the beach "Bid-A-Wee" (Scottish for "bide your time a short while") and dedicated it to the property owners in 1938, with the stipulation it be used for "park purposes only". This dedication, along with the efforts of residents, helped preserve the area as a wildlife preserve and the last undeveloped private beach in Panama City Beach.
