Destin area has many great restaurants. I will list my favorite local places, otherwise you would note the chain restaurants on the main road. Highly recommend installing Nowait app to your phone. You can avoid long waitlist in restaurants where reservations are not accepted and Nowait app is used.

Entertainment & Activities
Pirate cruise is a lot of fun for kids. We highly recommend it for kids.
We also recommend the Dolphin tour. We heard that morning tours are much better. You may see the dolphins up close also with the Jet Ski’s. There are 4-5 tour operators for the dolphin tours at the Destin Marina.
Kids Fishing Trip is a fun activity geared towards kids.
Deep sea fishing is another fun activity for fishing enthusiasts. HarborWalk Charters, Swoop and Charter Boat Huntress are a few recommendations.
Wild Willy’s Adventure Zone, Gulf Breeze Zoo & Botanical Gardens, Eden State Gardens, and Emerald Coast Science Center are other entertainment facilities that can be visited.
