Fall along the Emerald Coast is a beautiful, magical time of year to visit the beaches of Destin, Florida and the surrounding areas.

With day after day of gorgeous blue skies, lovely, cool temperatures and low humidity. Not to mention the fact that the off season means endless stretches of uncrowded, pristine coastline for your family to enjoy practically all to yourselves and discounted rates, autumn on the pristine northern gulf coast is the best kind of treat, without the trick.

Even though our water temperatures stay fairly warm for quite some time, should you visit and decide that swimming is not for you, rest assured, there are a ton of fun activities the whole family will enjoy still left to do!

For visitors planning a trip to the Sea Oats Motel, the original beachfront vacation retreat on the Emerald Coast, during Columbus Day weekend, they will be delighted to ride the high waves of fun-filled adventures in Panama City Beach, just a short drive from the motel, with the 4th Annual Pirates of the High Seas Fest.

Setting sail October 7-9, 2016, this year’s FREE festival is sure to take pirate fun to a whole new level. Even though Panama City Beach will be invaded by hordes of pirates, rest assured these fun-loving scoundrels are more interested in throwing a party that is fun for the entire family than causing trouble.

Activities that will capture the imagination of kids of all ages include parades, treasure hunts, invasions, sword-fights, fireworks and culminates with a Block Party and music festival with artists that both parents and kids can groove to.
