We love going to Holiday Isle when we visit Destin. It is close to shopping and yet somewhat off the beaten path. The beach has been restored and for the first time EVER there are shells to find.

We always stay at the Jetty East Condos in order to have full access to this beach... great fishing on the jetties, great snorkeling, more private, family oriented.

We loved hanging out on the beach. The water was clear and the beach itself was pristine. Staff were very kind and helpful. Can't wait to return!

Jetty East is always a good place to go, but the beach has dwindled down to almost no beach. They need to provided complimentary beach service.

Do you see the green umbrellas covering the beaches? My husband used to set them up. Lets just say I come here often. It's a beautiful beach. That's destin in general. Parking can be hard to find if you are not staying at one of the hotels on Holiday Isle. Summer time it gets crowded but nothing like Panama City.... More

Thisis a good place to access via the Osteen Beach accee point on Gulf Drive. You can snorkle near the jetties in calm water and see all kinds of fish.
