Drinks & Nightlife
I would love to be original, but if your out late in Destin you'll end up here. Try going early on Sundays for some awesome live music if you want to enjoy the view and avoid the partiers. If its the partiers who are reading this, I don't have to tell you to go here, haha.

Don't sleep on the food here. The Other End is an awesome secluded spot. It was kind of a secret but know its well known. Grab a spot at the bar or hang out on the deck. Great food, great beer, great views.
