Just East of Downtown Destin, Miramar Beach blends relaxation with activity for a balanced beach vacation. With a diverse array of vacation rental options in Miramar Beach, travelers can choose from quiet neighborhoods to active Gulf-front resorts.
One of the most fun ways to explore Miramar Beach is a ride down Scenic Highway 98 by car or bike. The two-lane highway meanders along the coast providing views of the powder-soft sand beaches and colorful blue hues of the Gulf of Mexico balanced by a backdrop of high-rise condos, luxury beach homes, kitschy souvenir shops, locally-owned ice cream parlors, and casual beach-front restaurants serving the fresh local seafood. Renowned for its diverse shopping, Miramar Beach is home to Silver Sands Premium Outlets, featuring more than 100 designer and brand-name outlet stores. In addition, the area is home to the Cultural Arts Alliance's Miramar Beach Creative Campus featuring original art and art workshops.
