Me and my family was waiting to do a firework cruise through Destin snorkel in the village and we had some time to kill. We seen this ride experience and thought "why not it's vacation". Pricing is high at $13 a person but you expect that at tourists traps like this. The decor in here was ratty fun and the workers were nice. You choose from a list of different spooky or fun adventures. The workers describe them as motion roller coasters with 3r goggles. After picking your "movie" you wait in a lien until it's your turn. Wait wasn't bad. As each one only lasts about 5-6 min and we only had one family in front of us. They have a row of yellow chairs and when it's your turn a curtain draws and shuts you in for the best viewing pleasure. My kids went with the carnival movie choice. The ride itself was fun and it had a few legit jump scares on the ride too. We all really enjoyed the ride as the movie we picked was creative. The rides are interactive as you have a little yellow gun attached to your chair and you shoot the bad guys to see who gets the high score. In our see we're shooting evil and demented clowns. Not to brag but I kicked my kids butts and landed a top 5 score for the day in that particular movie ride. Overall a fun and memorable vacation experience. You wish it was cheaper but you also understand the hustle too. I wouldn't be opposed to going again and doing a different movie If we ever vacation the Destin area again.

We haven't been to Destin in a few years, and we looked forward to this activity which had been a staple of our summers for years. First, when we pulled up (this was early evening, after dinner), I wasn't even sure it was open. We felt like the Griswolds going to Wally World. We walked around the corner and found someone at the ticket booth and a few other people waiting to buy tickets. We purchased without a wait, got our putters, and went to the first hole of the yellow course. It was very quickly evident that the place is in a terrible state of disrepair. Splintered and rotted wood all over - railings, posts, stair treads, handrails, walkways, etc. There were nails that had worked out of the wood and sticking out. There were at least two places where a board from the walkway was sticking up enough to be a tripping hazard. Carpet on the playing surfaces was torn and shredded, to the point that play was impaired on a few holes. There was a lot of standing, stagnant water in some areas, including in one of the putting holes, so an absolute breeding ground for mosquitos. This was such a disappointing experience. I kept wishing I had gone back after a couple of holes and demanded my money back. I cannot recommend Big Kahuna's for anyone.

I don't know if the shift lead was busy, was one of the teens or just not super good at directing their staff, but it was pretty bad.

It was nice to walk around basically a board walk and let everyone go their own way. AJs was a place to eat located here. We finishing eating and went down there to walk around. Some of the people we were with went zip lining. It was $27 to go there and back. Definitely a one time thing but they had fun.

There was so much to see,…read moreincluding sea turtles, stingrays, penguins, alligators, sea lions, dolphins, and many other amazing animals. One of the things my hubby and I loved the most is that the Gulfarium also serves as a rehabilitation center for marine life. Many animals are treated and released back into the ocean whenever possible, while others that could not survive in the wild are given a safe and caring home. We saw a sea turtle with two missing flippers, which was both heartbreaking and made us happy at the same time since it wouldn't stand a chance to live in the wild. We watched both the sea lion and dolphin shows, and they were great. It was so nice to see that the trainers genuinely care about the animals. The animals were rewarded with plenty of treats, attention, and affection throughout the presentations. My favorite part of the entire visit was seeing the manatees. I had only ever seen them in pictures before, and I completely fell in love. They are such gentle, peaceful, and beautiful creatures. I could have watched them all day!

Here's an updated version with your added feedback included:…read more We visited Gulfarium Marine Adventure Park in Fort Walton Beach and really enjoyed the self-guided walk through the park. We saw stingrays, dolphins, penguins, manatees, turtles, crocodiles, pelicans, snakes, lizards, frogs, and many other animals. Even though we missed the scheduled shows, there was still plenty to see and enjoy at our own pace. One of the best parts was learning that they care for many rescue animals and help rehabilitate and release them back into the ocean when possible. It was great seeing a place focused on marine animal rescue and conservation. The park was family friendly and easy to walk through, with lots of close-up animal encounters. The reason for 4 out of 5 stars instead of 5 is that some of the animal habitats and viewing areas were not very well maintained. A few tanks had noticeable algae buildup, which made it difficult to clearly see some of the animals. Overall though, we still had a good experience and would recommend visiting if you are in the Fort Walton Beach area.

There's food, there's shops, there's a guy juggling fire (maybe--it felt like there could be). I came for a peaceful walk and left with a pineapple drink, a henna tattoo, and a new best friend named Carl who sells seashell wind chimes. Parking? Good luck. You'll walk 47 miles, but at least you'll burn off that fried shrimp platter. Bring comfy shoes and your wildest beach hat. Also maybe a life coach, just in case you have an existential crisis trying to pick between the fudge shop and the taco stand.
