About Vacation Rentals in Destin
Destin, located in the
Florida Panhandle Area, has has maintained its great past as a fishing village and the swanky new image as a platinum resort destination with ease. Destin has the largest charter-boat fleet in Florida. Anglers compete for hundreds of thousands of dollars in various tournaments throughout the year as the area is famous for trophy fish caught off its shores. Prices for the charters may vary by boat, and include bait and tackle. Meals can also be arranged with the boat captain.
Beaches composed of silky smooth, sugary white sand is what you see throughout the Panhandle and Destin is not different. The most popular public beaches in Destin are Henderson Beach State Park off of Highway 98 on the east side of Destin with natural features like sand pines, and scrub oaks and James Lee Park on Old Highway 98. Recreational opportunities are in plenty at Destin and golfers are not disappointed at the area as they have acres of links to swing their tees in style! You can also enjoy water sports like diving, snorkeling on the natural reefs, wrecks, and barges in the area. Tennis and hiking are also available for guests of
Florida Vacation Homes.
Fort Walton Beach, just across from Destin over the Miracle Strip Parkway, has pristine beaches for beach lovers. If you prefer a daytrip, head west to the historic town of
Pensacola, the "western gate to the sunshine state." Or you can head east and enjoy the
Panama City Beach, home of Spring Breakers and the venue of the Florida Ironman triathlon since 1999.
