Plan on hitting an extreme, whether that’s soaring high or diving low. Parasailing is a popular adventure along the beachfronts, as is diving. Other pursuits may include hiking and biking; a particularly well-known route follows 30-A east of Destin. Extreme pursuits along the Mississippi coast can run the gamut from fishing expeditions and island exploration to the pursuit of jackpots in the coast’s casinos.

Itineraries will vary widely according to the type of activity preferred. Sterling’s vacation planners generally recommend a minimum of a 3-day beach vacation so that the adventure activity is augmented by time to explore and relax.
