The local feeling around Miramar Beach involves doing things at a slower pace and staying close to the water instead of bouncing between big attractions. A lot of locals and repeat visitors get some bay time in instead of high energy tours. Things like a dolphin cruise in Choctawhatchee Bay or a pontoon rental where you cruise, anchor, and hang out are common. Sunset cruises have that local feel because people are often winding down the day on the water. On land, grabbing food at smaller local spots near the harbor or Sandestin instead of trying to hit multiple big attractions in one day is also part of the authentic experience.
