From the Emerald Isle to the Emerald Coast – Destin has plenty to offer to get the party started this St. Patrick’s Day! Whether you’re celebrating your Irish heritage with your family or simply heading out with your group of friends to join the thousands of other revelers to honor all things St. Patty’s, make sure you stay safe and travel in the utmost comfort with our luxurious Destin limo service. Our state of the art limousines are the perfect choice to kick off your celebrations in style, and we can offer a range of different options to perfectly suit your group size and budget. We even have a range of party buses that can cater for larger groups and ensure that you can get the festivities started straight away! You won’t need to worry about getting home at the end of the day either – our professional, specially trained chauffeurs will whisk you back safely to your destination, so you can enjoy raising a glass to St. Patrick without the concern of driving. If you’re looking for a fun event to start off your St. Patty’s celebrations, you can’t go wrong with a traditional parade. Grab your finest green gear, don those leprechaun hats, and head out to watch the 11th annual 30A St. Patrick’s Parade which takes place from 2 pm at Arnett’s Gulfside Farm and Stables in Santa Rosa Beach. As well as the parade there’s also a family-friendly festival, starting from 3 pm, which features entertainment from the likes of the Drake School of Irish Dance and traditional Irish jig music from The O’Mericans Celtic Band. There will be classic Irish dishes on offer from local food vendors, such as corned beef and cabbage, as well as a range of activities and events including 30-foot slides, face painting, best-dressed pet, and even competitions for Best Redhead and Best Pirate! You can even grab a pint of green beer to toast the celebrations, too. Alternatively, head down to HarborWalk Village for a St. Patrick’s Day celebration with a Floridian twist. Take in the beautiful Destin harbor-side setting whilst drinking your way around the 10th annual St. Patrick’s Day Grogg March. Tickets are $10, and you will visit a range of HarborWalk Village’s bars and restaurants for exclusive drinks offers in each. The money raised from ticket sales will also be donated to local charities, so you can feel good about having a good time! Why not top off the day with a stay at the luxurious Emerald Grande situated in the heart of HarborWalk Village? Featuring a full-service spa, secluded beach, bar and grill, 2,500-square foot heated outdoor pool, and spectacular views of the turquoise waters of the Gulf of Mexico and Destin Harbor beyond, it could be just the tonic to ease a sore head the morning after!
