Jetty East Beach


Jetty East Beach is located on Holiday Isle in the heart of Destin, Florida and situated on the Gulf of Mexico. Visitors come here to enjoy the three miles of sandy beaches as well as the shops, restaurants and watersports. It is also a quiet area given there is very little vehicle traffic on the island.

One of the big features of this area is the diving from East Jetty, which can easily be accessed by boat or a short walk from the shore. This is considered the only beach dive in the Destin area other than from Destin Marler Bridge. Dives are best done during a slack tide period with visibility sometimes s good as 30 feet offering a chance to see some reef life.

The views of the Gulf of Mexico and the jetty provide a perfect backdrop for beach weddings and other private events. Holidaymakers just keen to relax on the beach can hire chairs and umbrellas from the lifeguards. However, there are also many activities that can be undertaken here such as jet skiing, kayaking, parasailing and children will be able to build sandcastles or paddle in the sea.
