Yes, if you want to experience different parts of the Emerald Coast. Destin offers a higher concentration of boating activities, HarborWalk Village, and Crab Island, while Fort Walton Beach is home to attractions such as the Okaloosa Island Boardwalk, the Gulfarium, and a generally quieter beachfront atmosphere. The short drive between the two makes visiting both practical during many vacations.
