Destin, Florida Guide

Holiday Isle is a coveted, three-mile long peninsula nestled between the Gulf of Mexico and the Destin Harbor. When you vacation on Holiday Isle in Destin, you feel a sense of privacy and relaxation. Very little traffic and sidewalks that line the main road make it a great place for bike riding or walking along the Gulf or the harbor.


But if you're looking for more than relaxation, there is no better spot in Destin than Holiday Isle! Fishing, snorkelling, jet skis, parasailing and many other water activities are all right there along the Gulf and Destin Harbor, as well as a vast variety of great seafood and Destin's best restaurants. Looking to do some shopping? Enjoy the many strip malls and fashionable boutiques the Destin Harbor area has to offer.
