Destin Beach did not seem very damaged by hurricanes; however, the yellow building is still being renovated.
One of the many canals on the sound-side of Navarre Beach and one of many homes rebuilt since Hurricane Ivan. To the right and across the pond (made by Ivan) are where other homes used to be. Many homes standing still have deep sand on their driveway and even the roads that are off the main thoroughfare.
This is one of many For Sale signs. It looked like up to 40% of houses and lots were for sale.

Navarre Beach between Pensacola and Fort Walton Beach in the panhandle of Florida was devastated by Hurricane Ivan. Three years later much of the damage can still be seen. 7 miles of beach road between Fort Pickens in Pensacola to Navarre Beach is closed with areas of up to 3 feet of sand on the road and an area where the ocean broke through the road leaving a large gap in the road that is still filled with water. The house behind me, while still standing, is seriously leaning to the right. Below, another beach house in ruins.
