Destin Florida Holiday

Florida’s Emerald Coast

Destin is located on Florida’s Emerald Coast, which gets its name from its beautiful, clear green water. Cuddled against the Gulf of Mexico in northwest Florida, Destin is known for its sugar white sand and emerald-tinted waters. Destin is widely known as the “world’s luckiest fishing village”.  In addition to fishing, recreational opportunities include golf, tennis and water sports, including diving and snorkeling.  Sand pines, scrub oak, and sea oats are scattered along the landscape at Henderson Beach State Park. Amenities include hiking trail that peak on a dune, 60 plus campsites, six pavilions with grills, tables and a playground for the kids. And now, thanks to the Northwest Florida Regional Airport, getting to Florida Panhandle is easier.
