But, the beaches!
What brings you to the Emerald Coast? For me, it’s always been about the beautiful beaches! The peace and tranquility found there on warm sunny days defines your holiday retreat. Growing up in northeast Pennsylvania, beach vacations were always a special time. Even as a child, I remember loving the family retreats that would take us south to one of Florida’s many beaches, but we never found one quite as special as the Destin beaches. The soft, powdery sand and crystal clear water rivals the worlds most stunning shorelines. Because it is composed almost entirely of finely ground quartz crystals, the Destin sand is a breathtakingly beautiful brilliant white. It’s smooth, rounded grains contribute to the “squeak” sound the sand makes when you walk on it. Be sure to listen for the “squeak” beneath your flip flops as you step outside the Emerald Breeze condo and onto Norriego Point Beach Park, just outside the front door. With your sunscreen and beach chair in tow, you’re ready to enjoy Destin’s clear water and brilliant sand. Remember to grab your favorite beverage, and sunglasses too, and enjoy a beautiful beach day!
