Fireworks over the Destin Harbor

December 31st may be the one evening all year long that the nation pauses at the same time. Whether it’s stopping to reflect on the previous year while planning the next one’s resolutions, dancing the night away or simply enjoying a glass of champagne and fireworks – everyone has their own way of ringing in the New Year. This December 31st promises all the best for Destin vacationers looking to enjoy the last minutes of 2012 in their preferred tradition.

The skies above Destin will be lit with several fireworks shows all at once. From the Choctawatchee Bay to the Gulf of Mexico brilliant colors will be reflected on the serene waters all around. The two biggest bashes will undoubtedly be at Harborwalk Village and The Village of Baytowne Wharf - quite a convenience for visitors since there will be a celebration at each end of Destin. Both places have huge fireworks shows planned accompanied by live music, drink specials and the best entertainment on the Gulf Coast.  For visitors looking for a quieter option, Clement Taylor Park offers excellent views of fireworks over the Choctawatchee Bay.
