The Emerald Coast Vacation Experience is waiting for you here at Sea Oats in Destin, Florida.

We are so lucky to be surrounded by so many amazing area attractions!

In just a couple months, one of the most popular local favorites will turn 60!

On August 14, 1955 the Gulfarium opened under the name, the Living Sea. If you are looking for an amazing time for the kids that’s also going to be educational then this is definitely a place you want to be.

Even though the times have changed, the Gulfarium is still one of the more popular attractions but another activity is making its way to the top of the popularity charts. That activity would be paddleboarding, it’s taking the area by storm!

Many are finding the this to be a little easier than surfboarding. Folks of all ages and fitness levels are enjoying this sport which is not just limited to the beach.

If you are a beginner you might want to try a wide board. There are several locations in the Destin area that give lessons and rent or sell boards.
