Transportation
The taxi's are pretty expensive in the area, so I would recommend Uber or Lyft. There is also a water taxi that can pick you up at Louisiana Lagniappe and take you along the harbor.
Destin Water Taxi
Harbor BoulevardHarbor Activities
There are lots of boat rentals along the harbor. There are also paddleboard and jetski rentals. You can also book fishing trips, sunset cruises, and parasailing.
I think this is the most convenient paddleboard rental especially if you are interested in getting to Crab Island. This rental is right on the end of the harbor.
Kitty Hawk Kites - Fort Walton Beach
1450 Miracle Strip Pkwy SEI think this is the most convenient paddleboard rental especially if you are interested in getting to Crab Island. This rental is right on the end of the harbor.
This where the party is on the weekends. Shallow sand bar where most of the boats park for the day. Just on the other side of the bridge at the end of the Harbor, can't miss it
