A Little History

Destin is located on the gorgeous Emerald Coast.

Known now mainly for its green waters and white sandy beaches, Destin first originated as a small fishing village that has since boomed to a large popular tourist destination.

“The World’s Luckiest Fishing Village” got it’s name for a few reasons; the most well known reasons are because of the variety of fish that can be found along with the fact that access to deeper water is quite easy. The Luckiest Fishing Village is now home to one of the largest fishing fleets in the entire state. A fleet of that size along with some of the best fishing spots in the country provides the area with some of the most amazing and delicious seafood dishes. Destin’s seafood restaurants always use locally caught and fresh seafood.
