DAY 1 – November 18 – Arrive at Destin-Fort Walton Beach Airport (VPS), and private transportation will take you to your accommodations for the week. After settling into your room, get to know your fellow beach-lovers over a welcome drink and dinner.
Note: We recommend your flight arrives before 4pm on November 18 to allow adequate time to join the day’s activities.
DAY 2 – November 19 – Beach Day! Grab a blanket or a chair and sit along the water’s edge to soak up some Vitamin D. Hunt for seashells as you walk along shore, and if you’re lucky, snap a photo or two of Florida’s many shore birds.
DAY 3 – November 20 – Beach Day, or Shopping Day! Choose to enjoy another wonderful day at the beach, or catch a ride into town to shop ’til you drop! Destin boasts plenty of stores, including high-end outlets.
DAY 4 – November 21 – Today, your group will visit Beasley Pier and Okaloosa Island, which is one of the top 10 most beautiful beaches in the world. Enjoy a piece of Destin History and take advantage of the picaresque scenery. And since it’s Taco Tuesday, indulge in a local mainstay, Robinson’s Cruse Thru – the greatest tacos in the state.
