If you’re planning a trip to Destin, Florida this summer, or any other time of year for that matter, make sure you checkout these fun things to do in Destin.
Parasailing
This is another experience not to be missed, one geared towards adrenaline seekers as well as those looking for an unbeatable view of the Destin coast.
Just Chute me Parasail gives fun-lovers a chance to fly high, to soar above the water and see this beautiful landscape from 400 feet up! It’s a fun but safe activity that’s great for couples and even for families, with enough room for two people to be strapped in at a time.
Just Chute me Parasail will take you out on a boat, strap you to the back in a parasail, and then send you into the sky for around 10 minutes. You can snap pictures while you’re up there and there is also an experienced team of staff on the boat to help out and provide support when needed.
Sunset Cruise
The sand that circles the Destin coast is as white as sugar and as soft as foam, and once your feet sink in you’ll never want to leave. But there’s more to this coast than its glorious beaches and with the Sunset Cruise from Dolphin Cruises you’ll see it all from the best seat in the house.
As the name suggests, these cruises take place towards the end of the day, when the sun sets on the Sunshine State and bathes the city of Destin in a warm glow. It’s a still, peaceful and almost spiritual journey that perfectly encapsulates the beauty and majesty of this region.
If you’re lucky, you’ll see some dolphins on your cruise. These playful mammals surround the Destin coast and make regular appearances, giving you plenty of Instagram-worthy pictures to remember your vacation by.

These cruises run from early Spring right on through to October, so you’ll have plenty of opportunities to book one during your visit to the region.
Snorkeling
The waters around Destin attract a wealth of wildlife, not least of which are the Bottlenose Dolphins that this region is famous for, and they are also some of the cleanest and clearest you’ll come across. It’s a match made in heaven for snorkelers, and with Flipper’s Adventures you can do just that.
You can take a guided tour in the water, coming within touching distance of the fish and turtles, and experiencing the warm, clear waters first-hand. The snorkeling adventures are perfect for all ages—if you can swim and have a passion for adventure it’s the perfect vacation activity.
If you book with Flipper’s Adventures you can even combine dolphin watching with some snorkeling, as they have a 2-stop package that covers both of these activities and keeps you busy for over 2.5 hours on the Floridian coast.
Don’t worry if you’ve never done this sort of thing before—the experts on the boat will take you to the best spots to find the dolphins and will also ensure you stay safe when in the water.
There’s a first-time for everything, and this is an experience you won’t want to pass up!
