Destin, the family-friendly, celebrity-studded beach paradise on Florida’s fabled Emerald Coast, is attracting new waves of high-net-worth individuals who are basking in and banking on its beauty.

You can wear your flip-flops just about anywhere or dress up and attend some of the best dining and entertainment experiences in the nation. It has a laid-back atmosphere and epitomizes what a family-oriented beach community should be.�
