Norriego is a peninsula that separates the Destin Harbor from the Destin East Pass. This unique landmass allows for you to choose from relaxing on the Harbor side and watching the boats come in and out all day or lay claim to a spot on the East Pass side with the much more emerald green water and still see plenty of boats in and out all day.
Walking to the East Pass side requires quite a bit more of walk and if you're going to do that, you might be better off visiting the O'Steen Beach Access because of construction currently taking place here on Norriego Point.
