We were sad to discover this gem on our last night! What a fun place for everyone. There was plenty of shops and resturants. The view of the sunset on the bay was magnificent. It really added to the relaxed feeling of our trip. Had we found it sooner we would have been there more often. Don't miss out on... More

This is a good place for nightlife. The parking lot is very far from the eating places. There are many different types of food choices. The are 2deck walkways that offer spectacular sunset views over the bay.

You have to go through a guarded check point to get into the Baytowne Wharf. Which makes me think it is a very high end place to go. When we got there we discovered that there really aren't that many places to shop. What few clothing stores we found were mostly beach related. The stores are all very small as... More

Baytown Wharf is the perfect place for young and old alike. My wife and I go frequently. Every Wednesday night, there is a band playing on the green ... what a scene with people of all ages enjoying the music and dancing. There is also a whole bevy of entertainment including a zip line across the lake, all kinds of... More

I enjoyed walking around here at night and looking at the shops. There was a few restaurants, but didn't eat at any of them. There was some live music I could hear in some of the places. There was an ice cream and yogurt shop I got yogurt from and it was good. It is also fun place for children... More

Very cool place to go with families. Food, shopping, ice cream, playground, live music. We go every time we go to destin for s change of scenery. Be sure to get some gelato and take sunset photos on the dock at the bay near poppys.

We stayed in the Elation building. The resort itself is beautifully landscaped and has a lot to offer kids and adults alike. From the elation building we took a 5 minute walk to the Baytown Wharf Village and had a great pizza and some $14 cocktails at one of the bayside bars. All of the restaraunts are mediocre, there are... More

We have lived in the area for over 10years and never been to this place. We were both very excited to go and see what shopping and restaurants were offered here. Our 2-yr-old twins were in daycare that day, but there is nothing they could do with the exception of the BLACK surface playground (in FL! Who designed that??). We... More

It's fun to walk around and people-watch, maybe catch a couple of cocktails. There's even a small zip line, which is tame enough for kids. As far as restaurants, though, skip it. There are too many other great places to eat in Destin, and these are over-priced with just so-so food. You're paying for the location. Think Main Street at... More
