| There are literally dozens of shops
and restaurants within a mile of the resort. Silver Sands, a large factory
outlet mall is right up the street for those rainy days (if there are
any). Fort Walton Beach has a new pier to fish off of that is wonderful.
Deep sea fishing is right up the street! Destin was a fishing town before
it was anything else, so you can come home with quite a catch. Take a ride
down 30-A to Seaside for some sightseeing. Or you can check out the new
area in ***DestinResort called Baytowne Wharf - lots of shopping and
great restaurants overlooking the Choctowatchee Bay. For the kids there is
bungee jumping, dune buggies, go carts, and a water park right across the
street. For the little ones there is a great little amusement park a
couple miles away. If you want to feel like you have really gotten your
money's worth, and have never been to Destin, now is the time to go. No
matter how long you stay, it is never enough. |
There is also a brand
new shopping area called Destin Commons, less than a mile away. It has a
16 Movie Theater complex, and many great stores and restaurants (Pro Bass,
Abercrombie, Limited Too, Sharper Image, Black & White Market, Hard Rock
Cafe, Johnny Rockets, Ann Taylor, and Build a Bear just to name a few).
The Emerald Coast was recently picked as the #1 Beach in America by USA
