National
Geographic Traveler Names The Emerald Coast One of their
"Best Fall Trips 2011"!

National Geographic Traveler introduced their article
saying "Cooler temperatures, striking colors, smaller
crowds—autumn is the perfect time to travel, ..." We
couldn't agree more!

"Photograph by Jim
Vail, My Shot
The Emerald Coast
Autumn along northwestern Florida’s
24-mile-long Emerald Coast brings fewer tourists and
lower, “value season” rates to the wide, sugar-white
beaches of Destin, Fort Walton, and Okaloosa Island. The
summer-worthy temperatures (highs in the 80s, lows in
the 60s) are ideal for swimming in clear, emerald-green
Gulf of Mexico waters or for golfing the more than 1,080
manicured, championship holes. October’s month-long Destin
Fishing Rodeo draws more
than 30,000 saltwater anglers to the self-proclaimed
World’s Luckiest Fishing Village to compete for daily,
weekly, and overall prizes. Watch the daily weigh-ins of
king mackerel, marlin, sailfish, and other game fish on
the docks at A.J.'s
Seafood & Oyster Bar.
Sample fresh-from-the-docks seafood at historic Staff’s
Restaurant, the Emerald
Coast’s first eatery, which is housed in a 1913
barrel-shaped Fort Walton warehouse and open daily for
dinner. The signature Broiled Skillet—grouper, shrimp,
scallops, and crabmeat stuffing drizzled with
cheese—comes with baskets of fresh-baked wheat bread."

The Beach Continues To
"Grow" at Pelican Beach
(5/22/11)
Beaches rarely stay "the same". Storms, tides, etc. can
change the shape of a beach. Over the course of a few
years, there may be erosion and a beach will gradually
decrease in size. Other years, natural replenishment
occurs and the beach grows in size and depth.
Guests and staff at Pelican Beach have noticed over the
past year a steady increase in the size of the beach. We
have reviewed recent images and the contour of the beach
and have found in the range of 80 to 100 feet of sand
have been deposited over the past year or so.
We're not scientists or surveyors and our numbers are
in-exact ... but we are encouraged the trend will
continue!

Snowbirds Flock To The Resorts of Pelican Beach! (1/31/11)
The Resorts of Pelican Beach, one of central Destin’s
premier resort properties, has announced that the annual
'Snowbird' season is in full swing with many winter
rental guests in house again this year. Each year,
retirees and vacationers, affectionately known as
'Snowbirds' migrate from the northern United States and
Canada to spend up to three months in one of the
resort’s fully furnished and professionally managed
beachfront, beach view or gulf view condominiums.
Winter monthly rentals are available beginning November
1through the end of March and have become very popular
for retirees wishing to avoid the cold winter weather in
places like Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and
Canada. Many "snowbirds" call the Emerald Coast home
for one to three months every year. These winter
renters take advantage of the great year-round weather,
restaurants, golf, shopping, and entertainment while
relaxing in a fully-furnished condominium that is
convenient to everything the area has to offer.
The Resorts of Pelican Beach offers an activity program
to guests throughout the snowbird season. In fact,
Pelican Beach’s extensive program has been a big factor
for so many snowbirds when choosing a place to stay.
Each week, the resort staff organizes more than 30
activities and events geared specifically to winter
guests. Pelican Beach guests can choose from activities,
such as watercolor classes, dance lessons,
exercise/fitness classes, golf outings, tennis, card
games, beach walks, and travel to regional casinos and
special events, such as Mardi Gras. Winter activities
are great ways for winter guests to meet and make new
friends and feel right at home.
"Many of our winter renters come back year after year
and request to stay in the same property since it has
become a comfortable second home for some of them. We
look forward every year to the annual 'snowbird'
migration and welcome all of them with our version of
Florida hospitality,” said Herb Profitt, General Manager
of Pelican Beach Management, Inc, the resort's onsite
rental management company. “Our guests know that they
are getting a quality vacation rental at a great price
along with outstanding amenities and activities. A
majority of them rebook for the following year before
they even finish their winter stay. For those people
wishing to avoid the winter weather and come to Destin,
we still have properties available!
