Experience Crab Island
Crab Island in Destin, Florida isn’t simply a place on a map, it’s the Emerald Coast experience you’ll always remember. Imagine this, the Florida sun shines down on acres of waist-deep, crystal-clear blue water. Boats of all kinds are tethered in a floating paradise, laughter fills the air, and music drifts through the breeze. It’s not truly an island, it’s a huge sandbar under the ocean just north of the Destin Bridge. But that only makes it more appealing.
It feels like the best summer day of your life every day here. You may jump off your pontoon into the sparkling lake, float with friends on huge inflatables, see dolphins swimming nearby and eat from floating food barges that provide everything from snow cones to fresh seafood. Families, couples and friends all come together to experience the enchantment of Crab Island, where worries go away and strangers become friends.
The water at Crab Island is so pure that it looks fake. When the tide comes in, it turns into a brilliant lagoon of electric blue and emerald. Crab Island is the place to be if you want a calm day with your family or a vibrant social scene that seems like it came straight from a postcard.
Don’t just go to Destin, live it. Get your cooler, your friends, and your sense of adventure ready. Crab Island is calling, and once you step into that water, you’ll wonder why you didn’t come sooner.
