The annual festival, which kicked off Friday and ran until Saturday, was held at the Destin Harbor for the 30th year in a row.

More than 30,000 visitors and locals packed the Harborwalk Village where they had their pick of all the freshest and local seafood, and when folks were too full to pack anymore fish and crustaceans, there was plenty of entertainment and crafts to keep them busy.
