A Fishing Destin-y
A Fourth Generation Destin Legacy Keeps On Fishing Look who is Destin-ed to be a champion. By Janie Harris A Fishing Destin-y Justin Destin, the fourth generation of Destins living in “The World’s Luckiest Fishing Village,” has lived on the Emerald Coast his whole life. And while he might tell you everything about himself, he typically fails to mention that the town where he lives was named after his spirited grandfather, Leonard Destin, who first sailed ashore in 1845. “I didn’t want it to be a big deal,” said the 27-year-old captain.
But Justin Destin does what all of the Destins have been doing for hundreds of years — goes fishing. His grandfather was certainly a local fishing legend, but Destin has made a name for himself on the docks, too. His boat, Full Draw, was Harbor Docks’ 2014 World Cobia Champion after crewmate and angler Danny Burkhalter lured in a 91.2-pound cobia.
But this fisherman does more than go fishing; he takes people fishing — running a charter boat business that has been in his family for years. “I get to see the sun come up almost every day … seeing some of the reactions of people … that’s probably my favorite part,” he said. He also enjoys the chance to catch “sea monsters,” and who knows? He just might.

Testimonials “Wanted to pass along an “attagirl”/compliment for Megan Irby. We are owners in Destin Pointe’s Magnolia House and she has really been great to work with. Whatever questions or requests we have had, she has handled them efficiently and with an excellent response time!” - Rob Friar “We are so excited to have purchased a condo in Magnolia House. It has been a dream of ours for many years to have a place of our own in Destin. After discovering Destin Pointe it became our favorite place! With the help of Resort Quest and Wyndham Vacation Rentals, the process of buying and renting out our condo has been very easy. Since this is all new to us we have had many questions and everyone has been more than helpful. Our experience has been very positive and we look forward to a long lasting relationship with ResortQuest and Wyndham Vacation Rentals.” - Maria and Nick Hernandez “As far as Wyndham Resorts/Destin Pointe as its predecessor, as renters over the last several years, we always had a good experience and expect that to continue as owners. They have been very responsive / timely on anything we have requested as renters/owners. From repairs to contracts, updating our listing on the website, etc. it’s all been handled/ answered the first time we’ve made it known to them.” - Leah Friar

Community Corner
Community Corner With two recent partnerships, ResortQuest is helping protect our past as well as our future! The first is to the Destin History and Fishing Museum. As the very first corporate sponsor of the Museum, ResortQuest staff was honored to present Director, Kathy Marler Blue, with a check for $1000.
The second show of support is to local nonprofit, Trees Destin. “Enhancing Destin’s beauty, one tree at a time…” is the organizations mantra and nowhere else is more deserving than Destin Pointe!
“We are so pleased to have such a strong community supporter understand the importance of our history and be proactive in ensuring our long-term stability,” Blue said.
“ResortQuest has long been committed to this community and continues to find new and innovative ways to give back to our residents,” said Executive General Manager, Ron Whitfield. “It’s amazing to work with a nonprofit that truly has the vision to put forth green initiatives and backs it up with a boots-on-the-ground approach.”
Destin History & Fishing Museum is located at 108 Stahlman Ave. DestinHistoryAndFishingMuseum.org, (850) 837-6611.
Allen French is Trees Destin’s founder and also a Destin Pointe resident. Your ResortQuest team looks forward to a tree planting on the property in the near future!
