Destin is the destination city for me, next week. It is in the Florida Panhandle and is commonly known in the Southeast as "The World's Luckiest Fishing Village." It has grown from a historic fishing village to a premier resort destination that it is today. It doesn't hurt that it is the hometown of Emmitt Smith, for all you old time Dallas Cowboy fans.
.
The city sits along the coast in the Panhandle, at the end of a peninsula separating Choctawhatchee Bay from the Gulf of Mexico. It is famous for its beautiful emerald-colored waters and sugar-white sand beaches, hence, its other nickname: The Emerald Coast. The beaches are the best, anywhere. As a matter of fact, the quartz sand there is so clean that it actually emits a little squeak when you walk on it.

I've enjoyed going there for years and it should be lots of fun !!
