Some fun things to do in Destin Florida

Dolphin Adventure

Destin Excursions will start your excursion in the intercostal waterway in Fort Walton Beach navigate the Choctawhatchee Bay towards Destin and then head out towards the Destin East Pass. We see dolphins in the intercostal waterway on a regular basis so we will have several opportunities to see dolphins on the way to and from Destin.

Sunrise over the bay

Sunrise Tours

Start your day by watching the sunrise cruiseing while you kick back and relax. It's fun for everyone of all ages. The great part about having a private charter is that you can customize the trip to your needs.

Kids playing

Gulf Island National Sea Shore

People of all ages enjoy playing in the water at the Gulf Island National Sea Shore. It is a shallow water sand bar 2 to 3 feet of water in most areas where you can get out of the boat, snorkel, swim or walk around and look for shells. There is also an ice cream boat that is easily reached on the vhf radio.

Sunset

Sunset Tours

We start your sunset cruise in Fort Walton Beach. Then motor east towards Destin to look for dolphins and other aquatic creatures. On the return trip, we idle back to the dock and take in the sunset over the Choctawhatchee Bay.

NOTE: BECAUSE OF TIME CONSTRAINTS, ALL SUNSET CRUISES ARE OVER CHOCTAWHATCHEE BAY, NOT OVER THE GULF OF MEXICO.

Try one of our snorkel tours in Fort Walton Beach FL. This is fun for all ages. We use Cressi masks that are known around the world for their high-quality products. They are ultra-clear, soft, and have a comfortable mask skirt.

 

Our snorkels are Mares Ergo Flex snorkel. They have a contoured design to provide snorkelers with completely dry breathing. The bottom part of the snorkel has a lower purge valve that gives you quick and effective tube purging along with comfort.
