Destin is a gem on Florida’s Emerald Coast, known for sugar-white beaches, emerald waters, fresh Gulf seafood, and warm hospitality. Once a small fishing village, it has grown into one of the state’s favorite coastal getaways while keeping its laid-back charm and natural beauty. This has been a requested destination… sign-up early and don’t miss the bus!

The Hank Williams Museum is not just a tourist stop; it’s a step back into the life of Country Music’s first superstar – Hank Williams.  You will be captivated by the southern charm of the Museum and spellbound by the magic of Hank Williams!  Hank’s music fills the museum and the artifacts of this tunesmith including his 1952 Baby Blue Cadillac will make you feel like Hank isn’t just a legend, but now a close friend! Hank Williams crowded a lot of living into twenty-nine years, and you will learn all about his life and the times he lived in.  After lunch on our own in Montgomery, we will complete our journey to Florida’s Emerald Coast and arrive at the newly renovated Hampton Inn and Suites Destin where we will check in for our three-night stay. Our hotel is situated about a 3-to-5-minute walk from the public beach access and is near local spots such as Henderson Beach State Park and dining options along “Restaurant Row”.  Amenities include a heated zero-entry saltwater outdoor pool and a 24-hour fitness center.  Unpack, relax and enjoy your evening in Destin!
