Destin is an Amazing Florida Panhandle Vacation

Buckhead to Destin for the last week of Summer? Yes!

Visiting Destin, FL is like opening an early Christmas gift – so EXCITING! Nestled on the Emerald Coast, you’ll quickly fall in love with the beautiful blue-green waters and the soft white sand. Fill your days with tons of water recreation from popular standup paddelboards and jet skis to dolphin cruises and fishing trips! Or just soak in the rays and do nothing at all.

Don’t miss attractions like Big Kahuna Water Park and the Gulfarium! And for the adventurous traveler, check out Destin via Segway or helicopter! There’s also outlet shopping, awesome eats and lots to do at the Harborwalk Village. Rainy days won’t get you down with movies, bowling and laser tag!

Accommodations are plentiful and range from moderately priced hotels to lovely condos with full amenities. For an adults only getaway, take a peek at Henderson Park Inn, a luxury boutique hotel with awards like Most Romantic Hotel in the US (2016) right here in Destin!
