Fun Things to do While in Destin

Snorkeling on the Emerald Coast is a delight for visitors of all ages. Although Destin doesn't have an abundance of natural reefs, snorkelers can investigate sea life in the crystal clear waters along the white sand beaches or snorkel the jetties where even more aquatic species can be found. Pick up a snorkel set at one of the beach stores or book a snorkeling trip with one of the local dive shops.

Take in a show at the Gulfarium and watch trained dolphins or book a tour on one of the dolphin cruises in the Destin harbor and see them in their natural setting as they race alongside the boats. Dolphins are regulars in local waters and may be seen while out kayaking, snorkeling, or even jet skiing.
