ABOUT VACATION RENTALS IN DESTIN
Destin, the best Beach of Florida's Gulf Coast Panhandle area, is famous for its endless white sand beaches, jet skiing, snorkeling, tennis, and shopping. Come to Destin and all of these pleasures can be part of your vacation. Destin sits on around harbor off East Pass, which lets the Choctawhatchee Bay flow into the Gulf of Mexico, and boasts the largest fishing fleet in Florida. It's also Northwest Florida's most upscale vacation destination - and the fastest growing one with a multitude of high-rise condominiums, the Sandestin resort, golf courses, and some of the Panhandle's best restaurants and lively nightspots.

Destin is perfectly located between Pensacola and Panama City. It is the favoured coastal destination in this area for both families who want some fun in the Florida sun and fans of feathered and flippered wildlife.

Fishing is a prime attraction in Destin and neighbouring communities such as Fort Walton Beach. Charter trips specializing in deep sea bottom fishing for red snapper, grouper and amberjack are an angler’s dream come true. For those who long for a battle on the high seas, trying to snag a large bull or mako shark and bring it on deck is the challenge of a lifetime. For golfers, the only problem is deciding which gorgeous course to play. Some are set in stunning nature preserves or along a bay. Among the favourites are Regatta Bay, Indian Bayou, Seascape and the Sandestin Resort’s Burnt Pine, a Rees Jones design that earns many accolades.
A great way to spend a day or evening is on a yacht. Three-hour dinner cruises on the bay aboard the SunQuest Solaris include a sumptuous meal of fresh gulf seafood (or prime beef), live entertainment and lots of room to dance to the music. A sunset or moonlit cruise would be perfect for honeymooners and any couple looking for a romantic evening.
