DESTIN VACATION
Food Scene
I like the atmosphere, fresh seafood, and great selection of draft beer. It's only a short walk from the Palms and conveniently located right next to the free beach.

This is our local favorite! The lunch menu is delicious and reasonably priced. Features outdoor seating on the doc with views of Crab Island and frequent dolphin sightings.

Best breakfast in town and we always take out a few doughnuts for later! This place is super popular so you have to get there early or the line will be out the door.

This is a great free beach with quite a bit of free parking. This is my go-to spot when Destin is crowded. Most of this strip of land is controlled by Eglin Air Force Base, but you can access from John Beasley Park and walk the entire length.
