37th Annual Destin Seafood Festival, Oct. 2-4

One of the most popular things to do in Destin during the fall is to attend the Destin Seafood Festival. Celebrating its 37th anniversary, the Destin Seafood Festival, Oct. 2-4,  is a long-standing tradition along the Destin Harbor.

Renown as the World’s Luckiest Fishing Village, Destin fisherman have been celebrating the bountiful Gulf waters for decades.

The festival will have four music stages (Destin City Stage, Destin Heron Stage, AJ's Game Stage, and HarborWalk Village Stage) as well as Harbor restaurants and bars featuring live music and entertainment. The family-friendly event also features kids activites, artist and craft vendors, and fireworks after dark. 

More than a dozen Destin seafood restaurants will be serving their fresh catch, with preparations ranging from traditional(fried, grilled or broiled) to creative recipes with twist.
