Florida‘s Panhandle beaches are some of the most pristine in the state, and the jewel in this region’s crown is easily the beach town of Destin. Once considered a sleepy fishing village, Destin’s charms — chiefly the sugar white sands and emerald waters of the beaches, and world-class golfing — have not gone unnoticed, and today, much of the town is a well-developed tourist mecca complete with large resorts, a bustling marina and active charter fishing fleet. Still, curious travelers can still find regions of respite amid the sprawl by visiting the town’s designated state park beaches, which remain stunning, wild oases. Pack your sunblock and set out with a hearty appetite for seafood — you’ll find some of the Panhandle’s freshest here — as you gear up for a Destin vacation.

Miramar Beach – Public Access is the ideal Beach Location for medium to large weddings centrally located on Destin’s Emerald Beach.  We recommend setting up on the West (front Entrance) using the first boardwalk as this is the least crowded section of the beach.  Directly across Scenic Gulf Drive is an overflow parking lot which accommodates another 64 cars.  A short dash to Wedding Site Zone #1 and you have arrived at one of the most pristine beaches in America!
