Bayfront or Harbor Condo?
Destin’s Bayfront and Harbor condos offer a completely different kind of coastal lifestyle. If you love boating, fishing, or simply being close to the water without the Gulf-front crowds, these properties may be a great fit for you! Here are some things to consider:
Water depth and Boat Access:
-
Not all waterfront condos offer the same boating experience.
-
Do you own a larger vessel such as center-consols or sailboats? You will need to look for deeper water access points within the Harbor and Bayou with channels that connect easily to the Gulf.
-
Please keep in mind the Destin Bridge vertical clearance is 65 feet!
-
Do you own a smaller vessel such as jetskis or pontoons? Shallow bay areas may limit boat size or tide movement, so understanding water depth is key to choosing the right property along our shorelines.
