Pontoon Pick-Up Docks — Destin & Fort Walton Beach

Pontoons go out from four docks — three around Destin plus Fort Walton Beach. Find yours, park easy, check in fast.

Pick Your Launch Point

The dock your pontoon calls home is set by the option you book — checkout shows it, and your confirmation email backs it up.

Parking

Xtreme H2O dock (7 Calhoun Ave): use the public parking at the Destin Marina next to the launch. Spots go quickly on busy summer days — pile the crew into one car when you can.

Destin X (214 Harbor Blvd): one vehicle per booking parks on site, first come, first served. Additional cars go free to 310 Mountain Drive or $15 at 285 US-98 W; RVs and trailers use the paid public lot across the street.

Gilligan’s Watersports (530 Harbor Blvd): park free right on the property, first come, first served; overflow lives at 531 Mountain Drive.

Xtreme H2O Fort Walton Beach (169 Brooks St SE): on-site customer parking, one vehicle per reservation, first come, first served — carpool when it’s busy.

Check-In

Behind the wheel? Clear the paperwork before you get here: drivers born on or after January 1, 1988 need a Florida boater safety certificate, and taking the Florida temporary boater test online ahead of time makes check-in easier and faster. There’s a $3 NASBLA test at the dock too — just plan for extra time. Be at your launch point 45 minutes before your start with a photo ID for every driver, and the crew squares away life jackets and the safety talk.

Don’t forget: swimsuits and towels, reef-safe sunscreen, a waterproof pouch for your phone, and a small soft-sided cooler with drinks — glass stays on shore.

Had a great time!
This was our first parasail, and I chose Crab Island Runner since they had more positive reviews than most of the other outfits. The captain and the deckhand were polite, professional, and funny. They made sure everyone was safely secured before letting them "fly", and we had a great time sailing over the water. When I get a chance to return to Destin, I'll be parasailing with Crab Runner Island again.
