Welcome to the beautiful Crab Island!

If you’ve ever made the trip to the Emerald Coast, Destin specifically, there’s a great chance you have heard of Crab Island. Crab Island is one of the most popular attractions in all of Destin. Featured on HGTV and Good Morning America, Crab Island’s fame has been growing at a rapid pace. The shallow emerald green waters, obstacle courses and floating bars have made it one of the most popular things to do on the entire Gulf Coast. Today, Crab Island is nothing more than a raised sandbar. At one point, it actually was an island, but sands from the Gulf of Mexico have eroded it over the years to turn it into what it is today. In most places on Crab Island, the depth of the water is about 1-4 ft. It’s the perfect place to anchor your boat down and have a good time out in the sun!

  1. Doesn’t look family friendly if drinking is part of it just need an alcohol free place…

  2. Visit, donate, and don’t forget why it is the way it is.. my papa Reddin Brunson, as well as a few others created the place you can staycay. Don’t lose site of what became of such a beatific place! 🤝

  3. All the pontoon rentals and jet skis are destroying the grass beds and fish stocks in the bay. Somebody needs to do something to protect it. One of the most beautiful places ever. Own locals are destroying it over their bottom line. What a shame!!!

  4. I'm lucky enough to live here. I don't go that often but it's fun to do maybe once every three months. Wear lots of sunblock made for babies otherwise you'll age your skin like crazy. It's just a big party. I wouldn't take kids.

  5. I love, crab Island! You wanna know why because I’m going there at Destin Florida at crab Island on June 10, 2023 it’s so cool right I know it’s so cool like I just love Florida and I never been there in a very long time like 18 years ago, I was there like a 18 years! I love Florida!😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊

  6. It's really a great experience, however be extremely cautious of the current out there. My family and I went there July 2, 2023 ….on that same day, 10 people lost their lives because of the current.

  7. I still prefer Hallandale Beach Florida and Hollywood beach Florida Boardwalk, Fort Lauderdale Florida Beach and Miami Beach, is way more beautiful and better.❤☀️❤

  8. I really hope they are taking care of that plastic and all that yuck stuff in the water I remember living down there and oil spills
