January 2026 Newsletter
January is one of the most rewarding months to visit Florida’s Emerald Coast, especially around Miramar Beach, Destin, and Santa Rosa Beach. The holiday rush fades, the weather turns comfortably mild, and the beaches feel wide open – perfect for long walks, outdoor dining, and unhurried days by the Gulf. It’s a time when locals come out to celebrate music, culture, and community, and visitors get to experience the area at its most authentic.
Staying at TOPS’L Beach & Racquet Resort, you’re ideally positioned to enjoy both peaceful beachfront relaxation and easy access to January’s standout events across South Walton, Destin, and neighboring towns. From world-class songwriting festivals and farmers’ markets to community celebrations, theater, and fireworks, January invites you to slow down, explore more deeply, and start the year surrounded by coastal beauty.
