A PERFECT BEACH LOCATION
The home is an easy walk to the beach; you can choose between two access points: Shirah Street (1 ½ blocks from this home) or the larger 'Shore at Crystal Beach Park' with a pavilion and bathrooms (about 3 blocks from this home.) At the house, you'll find a cart with beach chairs and an umbrella, so you can roll your gear to the beach with ease.
Crystal Beach is the gold standard of Destin...no high-rise condominiums. It's mostly residential, which contributes to the quietness of the neighborhood – you can just stroll down the sidewalk to the beach, or walk to a few nearby restaurants or shops.
Restaurants, activities and entertainment are also close-by. Destin Commons, a beautiful upscale shopping and entertainment center, is less than a half-mile away. It features over 75 shops and restaurants, including Bass Pro Shop, World of Beer, Whole Foods, Panera Bread, Uncle Buck's Fish Bowl & Grill, AMC Theater with IMAX and much more. Local favorite, Camille's, is an easy walk and The Crab Trap is about a mile east. You can bicycle, scooter, Jet ski and go parasailing all within walking distance. The Silver Sands Outlet mall is not far for those who enjoy “retail therapy”!
