FLASHBACK: The Destin East Pass and the Jetties

FLASHBACK: The Destin East Pass and the Jetties

For many of us, it is hard to imagine the contour of our beaches without the signature look of the Destin East Pass and the rock jetties protruding into the Gulf of Mexico.

They are a signature look of Destin and signal both exit and entry into the East Pass. A doorway to what many believe is the best fishing in the country. So many rocks, such a massive endeavor, and all man-made.
