Camping in Destin FL



If you are looking to go Camping in Destin there are several great places to choose from. Today we want to highlight Camping on the Gulf. This campground is located on the east end of town just past the outlet malls and right before the Sandestin Beach Resort. When you think of Destin you think of the beach, so why not camp right on the water? Camping on the Gulf offers spots for RVs, a chance to pitch a tent, as well as cabin rentals. They do fill up fast and accept reservation up to a year in advance.

Destin Chik-fil-a

Today we decided to head to Chik-fil-a for lunch. I rarely comment on fast food but I wanted to inform travelers on the best fast food chain in Destin. Our office is just up the street from their location and we tend to eat there at least twice a month. Every time our expectations are exceeded. The restaurant is always spotless. No detail is missed. Even the ketchup is stacked perfectly. The employees are always nice, well groomed, and smiling. The service is shockingly amazing. This week is Louisiana's spring break and the restaurant was packed. We walked up and placed our order after a very brief wait. Before the cashier could hand me my drink our food was ready. I know this is the reason they call if fast food but it is rare that you get such great service from a chain. Chik-fil-a is located in Downtown Destin directly across the street from Holiday Inn Destin On The Beach. For other great places to eat in Destin take a look at Do It In Destin.

Comedy Night at Howl at the Moon


Last night we had a chance to visit Howl at the Moon just outside of Destin. Every Sunday night they have a live Comedy show with 2 stand ups. If you get there by 8 you get in with no cover. They start off with their famous dueling piano show for the 1st hour. At 9 the opening comic takes stage. The comics travel around the country doing shows and for the most part are surprising good. Around 9:30 the main act comes on stage. The comic last night was hilarious. The entire room was laughing so hard they were gasping for air. Overall the show was great. The bar is right on the beach if you have a chance to catch them on a Sunday we would recommend this show. The average age ground was between 20-50. So pretty much everyone is welcome. Howl at the Moon is located on Okaloosa Island and the best hotel to book out there is Four Points by Sheraton Destin-Fort Walton Beach. Check out Cheap Destin Hotels for other hotel options and Do It In Destin for other entertainment ideas.

Destin Pizza!


Looking for a quick meal while in Destin on vacation? Pizza is the easy meal that can feed the whole family without breaking the bank. Once you decide on Pizza it may be hard to find the perfect pizza place. We have decided to highlight a few of the great Pizza places in Destin. Since Destin is spread out a bit we have chosen several places in different areas.


The 1st choice we highlight is Jordano's. This family owned Pizza spot is by far the best pizza in Destin. They are located on the east side of Destin in the Miramar Beach area. They do not have a site so we can not provide a link. If you want to give them a try pick up the phone and call them at 850 654-8080.


For downtown Destin we recommend Mellow Mushroom. This is a fun chain that has a kind of wacky flair to it. I do not believe they deliver but it is a great place to stop in for a great pizza. They also have a large selection of beer for the adults.


For the west end of Destin near the harbour we recommend LandShark's Pizza. This is the one of the three we have not been to. We are recommending this location based off rave reviews from friends.


If you are not adventurous and prefer well known chains Destin has them as well. For other great Places to eat in Destin visit http://www.doitindestin.com/
