DISCOVER THE HEART OF FLORIDA'S EMERALD ISLE
 
(2017 - Winter Issue)

Writer: STEVE WINSTON



At this premier beach destination, you only need a few minutes in Destin, Fort Walton Beach and Okaloosa Island before you realize why it’s known as the Heart of Florida’s Emerald Coast. Whether you’re lounging on the sugar-white sand of the gorgeous beaches, or making waves on the crystal-clear, emerald-green water, you’ll discover a vacation unlike any other.

With a variety of accommodation types along 39 kilometres of pristine coastline, you can choose from elite hotel properties and multi-room vacation rentals designed to fit any taste. Spending the day on the beach is usually a top priority. Whether it’s snorkelling, scuba diving, learning to paddleboard or fishing along with the locals in Destin—known as the “World’s Luckiest Fishing Village”—the mild weather throughout the year enables you to experience all of the wonders of the Gulf.

That’s right, the “World’s Luckiest Fishing Village.” From deep-sea fishing adventures to casting a line from a dock, and everything in between, this is the perfect destination for anglers of any skill level. And speaking of fishing, the Heart of the Emerald Coast is leading the charge in the Gulf-to-table movement. Gulf-to-table restaurants offer diners the freshest meals available, with seafood caught off the coast, in the Gulf of Mexico, only hours or a few days before it reaches the table.

While the glimmering emerald-green waters and iconic sugar-white sand are great reasons to visit the Destin, Fort Walton Beach, Okaloosa Island area, there are plenty of inland activities to make sure the fun doesn’t stop when you leave the beach. Take a nature tour through a lush, sprawling preserve, explore an interactive aquarium, fly through the air on a zip line, enjoy the unique and eclectic entertainment of the HarborWalk, and discover so much more than the shore.
