5 Reasons to Spend Your Winter Vacation in Destin FL

Published on November 18, 2018 On Destin Vacation News

Just because the weather is colder doesn’t mean you can’t still enjoy a trip to the beach! Destin FL is beautiful all year long, especially in the wintertime. With less crowds, there is a certain peacefulness about the area that visitors love. Here are just 5 reasons you should spend your winter vacation in Destin FL:

1. Gorgeous Weather

Average temperatures are in the 60s, making it the perfect weather to spend time outside. Trade in the winter coats and pants for T-shirts and light jackets. The weather is great for a round of golf or a nice sunset cruise. Take a walk along the shore as the waves crash at your feet, or search for seashells lining the Gulf!

2. Shopping

There are so many incredible shopping opportunities in Destin! Whether you’re looking for a souvenir to take back home, some beach necessities, or a holiday gift, you’ll be able to find it at one of the many shops in the area. One of our favorite places for shopping is Destin Commons, where you can find the best shopping and dining in the area! The stores have everything from apparel, to jewelry, to furniture. Other popular places for shopping include the Silver Sands Premium Outlets and The Village of Baytowne Wharf.

3. Less Crowds

You’ll get to see a quieter side of Destin when you visit during the winter.

4. Enjoy Winter Events

Winter is full of fun in Destin! Whether it’s celebrating the holidays or attending a chili cook-off, there is excitement all around you.
