This Valentine’s Day, escape to the water’s edge at Marina Bar & Grill, the dockside indoor-outdoor hangout at Sandestin Golf and Beach Resort. Known for its laid-back waterfront atmosphere and panoramic views of Choctawhatchee Bay, the restaurant invites couples to slow down, savor the moment, enjoy elevated, handcrafted dishes, and toast to love with the Love Potion ($13), a playful cocktail that blends pineapple juice, piña colada, strawberry syrup and white rum. Whether starting the day with a leisurely brunch, gathering after a round of golf, or settling in for sunset cocktails and a casual dinner by the water, the experience is designed to feel effortless and inviting.
