Unless you like Branson vibes with 10x the traffic, don't do Destin. 30A isn't as bad (Rosemary Beach, Alys Beach, Grayton Beach, Seaside, etc..) but they've gotten increasingly crowded. Beaches are all white sand gorgeous in the area with "aquarium" clear waters on low surf days, but you might be dealing with junegrass or sargassum, depending on luck of the draw. That kind of sucks when it happens. Otherwise, they really are gorgeous beaches there.

St. George Island is fantastic, but it's kind of out of the way if you're headed to Orlando.
