Moonlit Mornings and Golden Evenings: Stand‑Up Paddleboard Tours Off Crab Trap in Destin.
Laid out along Destin’s Gulf edge, WET Inc.’s Guided Paddleboard Tour is a compact, 2-hour outing that launches from Crab Trap and moves offshore toward an artificial reef—an intimate way to meet the Gulf at first light, last light or under a full moon. Guides supply all safety equipment, lead a brief orientation for newcomers and point out dolphins, turtles and large schools of fish as the board cuts quiet across the water.
