Thanksgiving Along The Emerald Coast
Thanksgiving Along The Emerald Coast
When you think of Emerald Coast, mostly you think of the pristine beaches of Destin and South Walton County, sand and surf, and the stunning 30A luxury homes along the gulf – rarely will you think of Thanksgiving. Here’s a fun fact for you: did you know that the shorelines of the Gulf of Mexico, here along 30A, are famous for families and friends getting together to celebrate Thanksgiving? Drive down Highway 98 on Thursday, Thanksgiving evening, and see just how much out of state vehicles are entering the area to revel in the Thanksgiving celebration, the 30A way.
A lot of people are vacationing along the Emerald Coast during the Thanksgiving week because of the paradise that it is. Many of these tourists, and even residents alike, can’t be bothered in the extensive preparation involved in a traditional Thanksgiving dinner. This is why we have come up with a list of restaurants along 30A with Thanksgiving offers to help make your holiday all the more memorable.
