Crab Island Season Begins! 2009
Although somewhat of a locals pastime, Crab Island is well known to those who have been visiting the area long enough to have recognized that the local "hang out" when the weather is nice is not the beach, not the local shopping mall, not a favorite restaurant - but Crab Island... a large sanddune located just north of the Destin Bridge.
This sandy spot caters to the water lovers who want to hang out by the boat, in the water - all day and enjoy various activities. From dancing the day away on the boat and in the water, to a boatside barbeque - Crab Island brings out the best (and some of the questionable) in everyone.
Families, couples and friends drop anchor is a spot on the sand dune and then walk to each other's boats to gather for a friendly "back yard" hangout. Nerf footballs, watersports and lounging are all popular in the knee deep water. Pets are plentiful as well and enjoy galloping in the gulf/bay water alongside the entire family.
Spattered with commercial boats offering beverages, ice cream and sundries - Crab Island is truly an experience not to miss! Maximize your Destin Vacation - rent a pontoon boat, waverunner or make friends with a local to take advantage of this unique, natural Destin Florida landmark.
