There are numerous dining options and food available in Destin. Some of my favorite restaurants are Bay Cafe & The Shack in FWB. The Shack in FWB has the best Fried Green Tomato's with Lobster/crab and a creamy sauce. (IMO). Bay Cafe, a unique French Restaurant (below the bridge in FWB, FL.) has the BEST burger on a croissant that melts in your mouth!!
In Destin there are numerous restaurants. Bone Fish, Harry T's (for brunch : best Crab cake egg benedicts), Pompano Joe's, McGuires, Marina Cafe, Dewey Destin's, Pazzo Italiano for Italian, Harbor Docks, Fudpucker's (see the alligators), Ruth Chris, Fat Boys for burgers. but hands down Bay Cafe, the BEST burger. Also available on croissants is a grouper sandwich at the Bay Cafe.

Best breakfast includes Bistrology, First Watch & Another Broken Egg.

While staying at Sterling Sands, enjoy a short walk on the beach from the condo to The Back Porch restaurant for food and adult beverages. Family friendly atmosphere.

There are so many opportunities for fun in Destin! Deep-sea fishing, dolphin cruises, parasailing, snorkeling tours, and a very fun pirate cruise, (Buccaneer Pirate Cruise) for families.
