What was once a tiny fishing village has become a premiere vacation spot on the Emerald Coast
Destin, Florida, was once a tiny fishing village that has become a premiere vacation spot on the state's famed Emerald Coast.
The town of 12,000 people is known for its white quartz crystal beaches and holds a quaint feel despite drawing in enough tourists to see some 40,000 people call it home — at least temporarily — during peak season.
Destin currently has 520 homes listed for sale at a median price of $599,000, data from Realtor.com shows.
