Destin, Florida is a beach-lovers paradise located in northeast Florida in the area known as the Panhandle. Known for its abundant white sand beaches and beautiful golf courses, Destin is also a famed fishing location with waters full of fish. Destin is part of the Emerald Coast, a 100-mile series of beaches that winds through five counties. Distinctly different from the touristy area of Orlando or Miami’s glitz, Destin provides visitors with a quieter side of Florida.
