Unpretentious, uncomplicated and unrivaled, Destin is a
charming seaside
resort town that
offers an extensive
variety of vacation
options. This sleepy
fishing village has
become increasingly
popular over the
years, but has
retained its quaint
charm and is considered one of
the more delightful
hidden finds along
Florida's Gulf
Coast.
A white ribbon of
sand curls along the
coastline, bordered
by brilliant emerald
seas. For the
angler, Destin is
known as the
"World's Luckiest
Fishing Village."
Salt or fresh, the
waters surrounding
Destin are known for
their abundance —
and their
challenges. Home to
the largest and most
elaborately equipped
charter boat fleet
in Florida, fishing
events and festivals
are held year-round.
Temperate weather
and refreshing
breezes continue
throughout autumn,
which brings both
the Destin Fishing
Rodeo and the annual
Seafood Festival.
Spring and summer
bring the excitement
of the Cobia
Tournament and the
Destin Shark
Tournament.
Acclaimed
as the "Best Beach
in the South" and
one of the top three
"Favorite Family
Vacation
Destinations" by the
readers of Southern
Living, Destin also
plays host to many
other recreational
opportunities. Dive
or snorkel on the
natural reefs,
wrecks, and barges
in Destin's clear
green waters. Acres
of links will
satisfy the golfer
in your family, and watersports,
sailing, tennis and
hiking are just a
few of the outdoor
recreational
activities
available. When you
come in from the
sun, explore unique
arts and
collectibles
galleries, specialty
shops and modern
malls. Savor
culinary excellence
with sumptuous
seafood straight
from the Gulf in
casual beachside
eateries or fine
restaurants.
So whether you're
looking to harvest
the bounty of the
seas with a fully
equipped boat from
one of the many
marinas or relax in
a stylish beach
resort, Destin is an
excellent vacation
option.
