My wife and I are flying into Destin later in June. We'll be spending 4 days in Florida. Currently considering going to Navarre Beach to relax, drink, and eat. Open to Fort Walton Beach or Destin if you can provide convincing reasons as to why. What recommendations can you make?

I’ve been to Destin twice and loved it both times. Some pretty good restaurants there. McGuire’s Irish Pub (awesome burgers), Dewey Destin’s (good seafood), The Back Porch (smoked tuna dip), and couple of other ones. The boardwalk is touristy but can be fun since you can drink as you walk on it. 90 minutes Dolphin cruise where you get free beer and wine on it. Rent a boat and head out to Crab Island to party. Just sitting on the beach is fun too since the water is crystal clear. It all depends on what you like.
