Best Tours & Experiences in Destin for Kids & Families

Looking for the best tours & experiences in Destin for kids? As emerald-green water and sugar-white sand on the Gulf Coast, Destin offers guided activities and unique local experiences that families won't find anywhere else. Whether you're visiting for the first time or looking for something new, we've rated every option for age-appropriateness, stroller access, and value so you can skip the guesswork.

Tours with kids are hit or miss. Walking tours over 90 minutes lose most children. We rate each for pace, engagement level, and whether there are enough stops to keep little legs moving. Private and small-group tours almost always work better with families. In Destin, expect warm from April through October — summer is peak season, spring is the best value. Pro tip: Henderson Beach State Park is less crowded than public beaches. Dolphins show up daily in the harbor.

Below you'll find our curated list of tours & experiences in Destin, FL — each with detailed age ratings (infants through teens), cost estimates for a family of four, and the practical parent details that matter: parking, stroller access, nursing rooms, and honest reviews of what makes each spot worth your time.
