    Goatfeathers - Steamed Royal Reds- yuck!!!

    I have said it once and I will say it again, Destin Ice is the best seafood market in the area. It is a drive from 30-a but the quality there never wavers. Do NOT buy shrimp from Publix unless you want your shrimp from Thailand.

    Mountain Biking

    The trails on Eglin Reservationare superior to the trails of Pt. Washington. More elevation and hard packed dirt with lots of great natural obstacles. Timber Lake in particular comes to mind.

    Restaurant Recommendation

    $15 per person budget means you should just stick to lunch at restaurants and go to our local fish markets to buy fish and cook at home. That budget will not get you much around here for dinner. Do not forget to to tip 20% on the bill. (If the service is great.)

    New York Times article on private / public beach fight

    Great article! Thanks for posting! I grew up in Destin and can remember when Holiday Isle was barren and the fishing was spectacular! It's a shame that it has come to this.

    Stunt plane crashes into Gulf (Near Topsail)

    I just witnessed that crash on the beach at Gulf Pines this afternoon on my Yolo. The T6 warbird plane was coming out of a loop and crashed at a 70 degree angle into the gulf at a very high rate of speed. The plane was about a half mile out into the gulf. I heard no noise as it crashed and...

    Speaking of Salad

    Olive Oil, Spritz of Lemon, Sea salt & Fresh cracked pepper are all you need for a green salad. Bottled Dressings are processed and expensive. Eat naturally.

    Be careful at Eastern Lake beach access

    That fencing is not standing in the way of anything. Water goes where it wants.

    Be careful at Eastern Lake beach access

    The fencing that is there is called "dune fencing" It is put in place to catch sand and is a support structure to form dunes. It has been used in this area successfully for decades. Wind blows the sand against it and over time the sand piles up and forms a dune.

    Ida heading toward SoWal [downgraded to tropical storm]

    The water is very warm in the southern Gulf and Carribean as they are tropical climates. As the storm tracks north it will lose it's power because the water temps in the northern Gulf are much cooler this time of year because we are in a temperate zone.

    Any new opinions on Blooms Cafe?

    Going to Bloom's is all about the experience. The food is pretty good to boot. One of the best times I have ever had in a dining establishment. The night ended with a squirt gun fight the last time I dined there and as stated before leave the kid's at home.

    The saltiness of the Apalachicola oyster or lack thereof has everything to do with the tides when they are harvested.

    best raw oysters

    The Hightide Lounge in FWB or Nick's in the sticks or Hunt's in Panama City. I only eat oysters where they shuck them in front of me. I have lived here my whole life and would not go anywhere but these 3 joints for fresh shucked Appy's!

    Destin NOT -- SoWal YES

    I live in Sowal but Destin is where I was born & raised. There is just as many nice things to see & do in Destin as there is in Sowal. Can you snorkel the Jetties in Sowal? How about relaxing on a boat at the amazing Crab Island. Can stroll down the Destin Docks taking in the sights and...

    Japanese Nabe (hot pot)

    I do not believe so. Try FWb for something like that. I do my own at home and it is very simple. Just make a good chicken stock and get some fresh shrimp, scallops, chicken or pork and you are set. Good luck!

    Sometimes one has to take the law into one's own hands. Too bad she got busted. It looks like the "leave no trace" is a raging success. I wish folks would understand not to trash the beach but unfortunately they do and it is sad. Please take time out of your busy schedule to pick up trash at...

    large pavillion

    The pavillion at Jetty East Condo has been there for about 35-40 years. You must be a transplant to this area. I was born and raised in Destin and that pavillion used to sit 100 yards from the waterline about 15 years ago. It is a tragedy what has happened to my once sleepy fishing village but...
