World's Luckiest Fishing Village

Destin earned its nickname as the "World's Luckiest Fishing Village" due to its location at the mouth of Choctawhatchee Bay and its proximity to the continental shelf. The area boasts the largest fishing fleet in the Gulf of Mexico with over 140 charter boats.

The emerald-green waters and sugar-white sand beaches make Destin a premier vacation destination. Luxury resorts, world-class golf courses, and upscale shopping complement the natural beauty and fishing heritage.

Destin Harbor & HarborWalk Village

Destin Harbor is the heart of the city's fishing industry and tourist activities. The harbor boardwalk offers waterfront dining, shopping, and entertainment with stunning views of the fishing fleet and luxury yachts.
