I went here with my kids and we were all let down. I’m not sure exactly why this place is on Destin tourism sites as a must-see. The sand isn’t soft, the water isn’t clean, the beach has seaweed all over it, there are no “tide pools” like all the sites say there are. The many boats coming to and from the harbor make the swimming areas quite choppy. And the noise and smell of the boats and harbor just add to the disappointment. I would never recommend this as a place to visit while in Destin. Not worth your time. There are many other beaches that are much better.

Wow!! This place is so nice. We stayed at East Pass Towers which is next door to the park. We spent a lot of time there. There are 4 zero depth tide pools which are great for snorkeling and swimming. Over the rock wall you can sometimes see turtles and larger fish. It’s great to watch boat traffic too. We took great pictures with your cell phone.
I highly recommend stopping here while in Destin.

UPDATE: There is no parking lot at Norriego Point for the time being - the only parking available is STREET PARKING and it is $20 for four hours (paid up-front, through an app). A large section of the entrance is now fenced in and is a long walk from the street to the beach area (you can walk between the fences, there is a very narrow walkway). The snorkel areas ARE beautiful as is the view of HarborWalk Village and the boats coming and going but just wanted to give an update for a lot of the outdated information to minimize the chance for anger or disappointment. If you're going to try to visit Norriego, I highly recommend going EARLY as those parking spots fill up quickly!!!

Easy to find, parking was fine in the morning and off-season. It was a bit of slog through the sand to get to the beach but so worth it! In the second cove, we saw dozens of hermit crabs and the snorkeling was decent.
