Water Activities / Boating

1) Crab Island a. One of the go-to spots here in Destin. Our family loves to go out and enjoy the crystal clear water. We usually rent a pontoon – my son loves to go down the slide! We enjoy kayaking, taking off on a jet ski, or playing some pong in the Gulf. Surrounded by music, people, boats, and even some dolphins along the way – you just can’t go wrong with a day at Crab Island. Enjoy fishing, swimming, tanning – life! b. Bookings: Destin Harbor or online at destinflorida.com c. Large Group: recommend to take a pontoon d. Shuttle: Crab Island shuttle will take people to and from the island e. Best Time to Go: High Tide – 9am-10am – start your day with this and enjoy a 4 hour time frame out on the water. We’ve also been during mid-day and it’s just as nice but a little more shallow.

Fishing

HarborWalk Village is the capitol in Destin for fishing boats. I would highly recommend calling around to comparing pricing

THE BEST ITALIAN - and wine! I know, people always come to the beach for the seafood - and we are no different. However, one year we all decided that we wanted something different and man - our stomachs fell in love. We always make it to this restaurant whenever we come down to stay.

World famous Boshamps - great food, however please be considerate that you will be on a 1-2 hour wait. They always text for your table so it's great to go, put your name down, and then walk around and down towards the Harbour Walk Village.
