Watch the boats fish, walk the boardwalk, and enjoy fresh seafood at Destin Harbor. During the day, browse the shops and admire the monuments on the boardwalk. Dolphin cruises and charters depart from the harbor regularly, so join a tour if you'd like to see the playful creatures. Consider making restaurant reservations, because the harbor gets crowded during meal times. Put Destin Harbor at the forefront of your travel plans using our Destin trip itinerary planner.

Where to stay in Destin

©
Most of Destin’s vacation accommodations are hotels, motels, and high-rise condominiums. For a luxury vacation stay, you can find a number of large houses located along the coast. Not only do these properties boast superb sea views, but many are within easy walking distance of the beach and some of the city’s best restaurants and bars. Pitch a tent at a local campsite to save a few dollars and take advantage of the Emerald Coast’s mild weather.
