With summer on it's way the Destin Beach couldn't look more beautiful. The water is warming up and people are already enjoying sunny summer days at the beach. Emerald waters and blue sky along the Gulf Coast look great from the ground but, here is another perspective from the sky thanks to a local powered paragliding pilot flying from Destin and 30a including beaches of destin beach, Crystal Beach, Grayton Beach, Miramar Beach, Sandestin, Seagrove, Seaside, Topsail State Park and many others. Please enjoy the video, and leave comments if you have any questions about current beach conditions.

Remeber to be safe at the beach while in Destin.
This weekend a boy and his father swimming near the Majestic Sun Condominiums in Miramar beach were pushed away from shore. Thanks to two Walton County Sheriff’s Office deputies and the quick response of a nearby surfer, the boy and his father were pulled back to shore. The boy was taken to a nearby hospital where he was treated and released.
While at the beach visitors are encouraged to watch the beach flag warning system. The different color flags warn beach goers about the overall surf conditions. These flags are usually a good guide to know what to expect while in the water. The flag warning system uses four colors.
GREEN: LOW HAZARD – Calm Condition, Exercise Caution YELLOW: MEDIUM HAZARD – Moderate Surf and/or Moderate Currents RED: HIGH HAZARD – High Surf and/or Strong Currents DOUBLE RED: WATER CLOSED TO PUBLIC PURPLE: Marine Pests Present

The Destin oil spill effects appear to have cleared up for the most part in Destin and Walton County. When visiting the beaches, you will likely not know the oil was here. After storms you might find small weathered tar balls if you look hard enough. Some oil is in the sand and although you don’t really see it Bp still has small crews in the area looking after the beaches.
On 12-16-10 water testing along the Emerald Coast: Panama City, Blue Mountain Beach, Miramar Beach, Okaloosa Pier: have come back Non-Detect. Walton County Health Department, in coordination with Walton County Officials, rescinded all Oil Impact Notices posted on all Walton County beaches. Oil Impact Notice signs were taken down August 13, 2010, barring any severe weather in the area. The rescission is based on the following information:
Since early July, no significant beach oiling events have been reported to the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP). The FDEP has conducted sampling of water and sediment (sand)
The dispersant testing results for 12-16 have come back Non-detect.
Feel free to visit or contact Walton county Health Department http://www.doh.state.fl.us/chdwalton/ for information regarding the safety of the water and beaches
