Small-town beach vibes, a heaped helping of Southern hospitality combined with big-city amenities and attractions ensures that this coast has something for everyone.
Relax on 32 miles of white-sand beaches that stretch as far as the eye can see in Gulf Shores and Orange Beach, Alabama. These two beachside cities are a spring and summertime haven for families seeking fun in the sun and a winter playground for the annual influx of snowbird travellers. The destination is a mecca for world-class food with award-winning chefs, culinary festivals and international food sport competitions. Outdoor activities abound with nature trails, back bays and eco-tourism opportunities. The Alabama Gulf Coast is also steeped in military history and is home to a masonry fort built in 1819, where several significant battles took place.
