Home on the Harbor

Sunday afternoon is my favorite time to sneak into AJ's for a few drinks and a snack (or two!). Fine weather, a cool breeze off the Gulf and a perfect view of the Destin Charter Fishing Fleet - AJ's offers an unbeatable atmosphere, delectable treats and strong cocktails. This is a t-shirt and jeans, shorts and tank top, or well - whatever floats your boat kind of atmosphere. There's no judging at AJ's, especially past 10pm! During the day it is a family affair, children welcome upstairs and down; while the evenings are lively with music, local bands and plenty of drinking and dancing.

Southern hospitality is alive and well at AJ's, patrons are not shy and will share a story, cocktail or a dance! Every Sunday, AJ's prepares a fresh crawfish boil in addition to their diverse menu of seafood and appetizers. Scrumptious treats, crawfish lovers will endulge in this spicy concoction of crawdads, red potatoes and sweet corn on the cob!

The view during the afternoon usually consists of watching the fisherman unload their catch and prepare the fish for commercial use. Crowds gather around the docks to watch the local tradition unfold. Destin has the largest charter fishing fleet in the State of Florida and is known as the "Worlds Luckiest Fishing Village!". A complete listing of available Captains and boats for daily and trip rentals can be found at http://www.hookedondestin.com/.

Without a doubt, the Destin Harbor and AJ's is the one spot on your vacation that will send you home with plenty of tales to tell!
