DAY TRIPS
1. Day trip - Harborwalk Village in Destin - shops and restaurants along the boardwalk. Special events are held in this area too occasionally. I like Harry T's restaurant because it is on the end of the boardwalk, and you can watch all the different kinds of boats come in and out of the harbor. They have an upper deck bar also. http://www.harryts.com
