Destin Vacation HighlightsThe U.S. Air Force Armament Museum at Eglin Air Force Base is a magnet for warplane enthusiasts. The exhibits trace aircraft development from World War II through the Korean and Vietnam Wars to recent Middle East conflicts. Reconnaissance, fighter, and bomber planes are some of the exhibits on display. The Indian Temple Mound and Museum houses one of the largest ceremonial mounds ever discovered, dating from A.D. 1200. The museum showcases the nation's largest collection of artifacts from southeastern American Indian tribes. |

It overlooks Choctawhatchee Bay and is framed by huge moss-covered oak trees and camellias, azaleas, and other Southern flowers. Try the beaches at Henderson Beach State Park, or James W. Lee Park on the way to nearby Sandestin. From Fort Walton Beach, visit the white sands of Okaloosa Island across Santa Rosa Sound. For a family outing visit the games arcades and picnic areas of The Boardwalk. |
