Some people consider Destin the jewel of the Gulf Coast. It certainly has more high rise condo developments than any other destination on the coast. There is a little more to Destin than all the high rise developments. Like just about every other town on the coast Destin came from simple roots, an economy based on fishing an tourism.There is still a large fishing fleet in Destin but the primary focus is recreationa, not commercial.

If you're not there for the fishing there is plenty of shopping and nightlife to keep you occupied and there are some world class restaurants.

Scuba diving is also a big attraction in Destin. There are hundreds of dive sites just of the coast in the emerald green waters ofthe GUlf of Mexico.
