Mid-Bay Bridge over Choctawhatchee Bay
OnlineThe slender Mid-Bay Bridge stretches nearly four miles across the open water of Choctawhatchee Bay, its low concrete spans marching toward the hazy horizon. Traffic threads steadily between Destin and Niceville while pleasure craft trace silvery wakes across the shallow bay. Framed from LuLu's waterfront perch, it is a quintessential slice of the Emerald Coast.

A Landmark Span of the Emerald Coast
Opened in 1993, the Mid-Bay Bridge is a toll causeway carrying State Road 293 across Choctawhatchee Bay, linking the resort town of Destin with Niceville and the mainland. Its graceful low profile and steady procession of concrete piers make it an instantly recognizable feature of the northern Gulf coast.
A Working Waterway
Beneath the span, Choctawhatchee Bay is a broad, shallow estuary alive with boats, kayaks and fishing craft. The camera captures the constant movement of vehicles along the bridge deck and the gentle ripple of bay water, a scene that rewards patient watching.
The View from LuLu's
Positioned at LuLu's, the popular waterfront restaurant founded by Lucy Buffett, the vantage looks out over the marina and the bridge beyond. It is a relaxed, unmistakably coastal perspective on one of Florida's best-loved stretches of shoreline.
