Vacation experts (Destin or San Destin?)

Sandestin is a resort, NOT a town.

What most people call Destin is not really destin at all. Most will refer to the area from the Bridge (Holiday Isle) all the way to the 30A area (South Walton) as Destin.

If you want to relax on a beach with no distractions, go to 30A...Grayton Beach, Dune Allen Beach, Seaside, Water Color

If you want a crowded beach (depends on the time of year) and plenty restaurants and some nightlife, go to.....Mirimar Beach, Crystal Beach, Sandestin

If you want cheaper and older condos (some new) that are all still close to the action, stay in Destin along the harbor and south of the harbor.

And PLEASE, I beg you, unless you have kids that you are trying to entertain, DO NOT go to Fudpuckers. Especially if you are looking for good food.
