The old-fashioned beach community includes over 300 homes and vacation rentals as well as many restaurants and galleries. The 30A area attracts many year-round to its widely known restaurants such as Red Bar and Vue on 30A, as well as its quieter beaches.

Destin, Florida is known as “the world’s luckiest fishing village” and is famous for its emerald waters. Throughout the year, there are cultural events, festivals, and marathons for locals and visitors to enjoy.
