The closest airport is the Okaloosa Regional AIrport in Fort Walton Beach (airport code: VPS). The airport is a 25-minute drive to/from Destin.
You also can fly into Panama City Beach (airport code: PFN) but it isn't as convenient as Fort Walton Beach. Leave a Comment Theme: Airplane

Driving around the area isn't too bad; Destin is laid out in a very simple way with the main drag running East-West. Leave a Comment Theme: Car/Motor Home

Highway 98 it traverses the Emerad Coast from east to west. Many major attractions, resorts and other recommodations are located along this major highway, as well as Scenic Highway.
Public transportation on the Emerald Coast makes it easy for you when you want to get out the wheel and relax.
You can catch the Wave, a fun and inexpensive local bus service that allows you to see the sights and get to your destination on time. All Wave buses are equipped with bicycle raks and wheelchair lifts to make your traveling more convenient.
Tip: remember that drivers cannot make change, so be sure to have the exact fare ready/50c/ride/25/c senior citizen/ handicap fare.
Okaloosa Island and Destin Shuttles, which provide transportation to Destin, Fort Walton Beach and Okaloosa Island.
The Destin Shuttle is divided into west and east service areas-alloving visitors to reach a variety of sights and destinations, including shopping districts, resorts, hotels and major attractions.
You can find shuttle route maps at the Emerald Coast Convention&Visitor Bureau in Fort Walton Beach.

Most people drive to Destin, and a car is the best way to get around. There is little public transportation, and taxi's are VERY expensive (especially in the summer and spring!). Leave a Comment Theme: Car/Motor Home

In the spring and summer, Hwy 98 is completely congested with traffic. It will take you an insane amount of time to drive very short distances due to this problem! In addition, many people become frusterated when they are trying to turn onto/around on Hwy 98, and they will just GO even if it is unsafe. I have seen so many "almost" collisions, so be careful and pay attention to other drivers. Leave a Comment Theme: Car/Motor Home

Taxi's are very expensive in Destin. During the high season, they can be as much as $20 one way at night-- even within only Destin (they are even more for traveling to Okaloosa Island and Ft Walton Beach). Leave a Comment Theme: Other
