FLYING TO DESTIN
Flying to Destin for your vacation? You’re not alone! Okaloosa County estimated that in 2019 more than 1.5 million passengers came through the terminal of the Destin Airport. We understand though that there are numerous options when flying to the Emerald Coast, so we wanted to write this quick guide to help you! Destin is located in the middle of three airports with airline service – VPS in Destin, PNS in Pensacola and ECP in Panama City Beach. The City of Destin and Emerald Escape/Sandpiper Cove lie just about in the middle of these geographically, so any of them work great if you are flying to town!
WHERE TO EAT
Probably the most anticipated part (other than the beach) of our Destin trips is… you guessed it – THE FOOD! So often our drive to the coast is consumed by questions like “which meal are you most looking forward to?” or “Are you going for the lobster or the steak this time, or both??” And it’s not just the amazing food we eat while we are there (although you can’t get seafood any fresher than that), but it’s the memories and dining experiences we have while we are there that are always in our minds until our next trip! So for our second blog post we chose to give a restaurant preview of what our favorite spots are in Destin to eat. This is not necessarily an exhaustive list, and we will most certainly miss some places that a lot of people love. This is just a list of the places we like to go when we head to Destin, and we are always ready to try new ones as well!
