Date Night in Destin & 30A
There’s no shortage of romantic date spots in Destin and 30A and we are excited to share some of our favorite places for a date night! If you’re looking for something more upscale or laid-back, there are plenty of romantic activities and places to explore. Whether you live on the Emerald Coast or are visiting for a long weekend with your spouse, we’ve included some of our favorite date night options below.
Pazzo Italiano
Pazzo is one of our favorite Italian restaurants. Open for lunch and dinner, they are a great choice for a nice meal in Destin! They’re centrally located catty corner from the Commons and have beautiful decor and great service. You can always order ahead for pickup and enjoy your meal from your condo or favorite beach. They also have a great happy hour menu!
Henderson Park Inn
Henderson Park Inn is well known for being one of the most romantic resorts in the country, and it's Destin's adult-only resort. Enjoy dinner at Beach Walk Cafe (where no one under 13 can dine), followed by a beach bonfire, or a romantic stay in one of their incredible suites!
Camille’s at Crystal Beach
The sister restaurant of Harbor Docks, you can expect the same great quality food at Camille’s. Menu favorites include a thin crust pizza, seared scallops and gulf shrimp, and an ever-changing catch of the day. Our personal favorite is their sushi! If you go, you must try the Backdown Roll!
Local Craft Breweries in 30A
Craft breweries have been popping up all over the country, and 30A is no exception. Many local breweries have tastings and other events year-round! Grayton Beer Company and Idyll Hounds are not far from each other in 30A, and Destin Brewery is right in the heart of Destin.
Explore Outdoors
Take a stroll down some of the beautiful trails on the coastline at one of half a dozen Florida State Parks along the Emerald Coast. If you'd prefer to explore atop your very own horse, Western Pleasure Riding Stable offers several types of trail rides in Santa Rosa Beach. A guided tour will give you the full outdoor experience – along with some history of the local area!
