Henderson Beach State Park is a great place for a less crowded beach access. The cost is $6 per car and worth it for a relaxing day on the beach. Growing up, this is where Acie's family would go to the beach every weekend.

Crab island is one of the more popular attractions in Destin. The shallow emerald green waters makes for a perfect boat day with friends and family.

Dewey's on the bay is the best place for fried shrimp and their tuna dip is M.J.'s absolute favorite. It's locally owned and a great place to grab lunch or a sunset. Acie's mom grew up with Dewey and Nina so this place is extra special.

Harbor Docks is by far the best place in town for sushi. The Backdown Roll, the TNT, and the Destin roll, just to name a few made by the famous Yoshi. It is also locally owned and you feel like a true Destinite while eating here. Say hey to Eddie while you're there, one of Acie's friends since kindergarten!

Boshamps is our favorite (locally owned place) for oysters! They have great live music and their dinner dishes are to die for. This place is a must for lunch or dinner.

Donut Hole is a Destin staple for breakfast and anything for your sweet tooth. The "Diet Plate" is a favorite, but there is nothing diet about it.

Destin Ice Seafood Market is our favorite place to buy boiled shrimp or any fresh seafood you want to cook yourself. They also make a great key lime pie.

The Destin Commons is the go to for all of your shopping needs. They also have a big playground for kids and a movie theatre.
