Not sure what all you like doing on vacation
Couldn't say for sure what the oil will do to the beaches around Destin, but I would still go despite the news media claiming the end of the world is near. We just got back and the threat was reported all week long. We did hit the beach several times and one of my daughters went about 4 miles offshore to scuba dive. Only thing she complained about was everyone got seasick because it was a little rough. There are a lot of things to do beside stay on the beach. We spent most of our time doing many of the things offered around the area...of which where waterparks, restaurants, shops, etc. There was an algea bloom that made it uncomfortable to swim on the beach anyway. Sand was still white and there was plenty of sun and margaritas to soak up. Beaches weren't crowded and the drive wasn't all that bad. Probably get a pretty good deal right now too. Just not much for the mountains myself. I like sand, sun and margaritas that have no bottoms to the glass!
