Your guide to Sandestin, Miramar Beach

All About Sandestin, Miramar Beach

Located on a peninsula in northwest Florida’s panhandle along the spectacular Emerald Coast, Sandestin, Miramar Beach is a small community boasting stretches of gleaming white-sand beaches on all sides. Along the town’s southern border are the jewel-green waters of the Gulf of Mexico, and the Choctawhatchee Bay lies to the north, creating a stunning backdrop for boating, paddleboarding, swimming, or simply relaxing in the sun on the beach.

In the evenings, the docks come alive with live music performances right on the wharf, and you’ll often find outdoor movie screenings on the beach or fireworks shows above the Village Lagoon. Because it is surrounded by water on three sides, freshly caught grouper, snapper, oysters, and scallops are staples of the local food scene, with some restaurants offering seating directly over the water. Many restaurants will even let you bring your own catch of the day and cook it for you. Sandestin’s central location on the panhandle makes it a gateway for exploring other nearby beach towns, including Destin, Panama City Beach, and Pensacola Beach, as well as the Blackwater River State Forest.


The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Sandestin, Miramar Beach

The best time to visit Sandestin is during the spring and early summer, when warm temperatures create pleasant conditions for sunbathing, swimming, paddleboarding, golfing, and boating. From June until November, hurricane season brings the possibility of heavy rain and winds, so bear this in mind if you plan on visiting during this time. From September through May, the community hosts its Wednesday Night Concert Series, with music under the stars.

In October, an annual beer festival features hundreds of ales and craft beers, while the fine arts festival provides opportunities to browse work from artists around the country. Temperatures dip during the winter months, though it never gets too cold, and Sandestin hums with holiday festivities, including the Sandestin Festival of Trees in November and December and the 12 Nights of Lights during December.
