Things to do in Gulf Shores

Gulf Shores and its neighbor Orange Beach share Alabama’s stretch of the Gulf of Mexico, with white sand, emerald water and a long string of condominiums and beach houses. Tourism is the economy here, from family vacations and second homes to golf, events and offshore fishing charters that run out of Orange Beach’s marinas through Perdido Pass. Gulf State Park and the Bon Secour National Wildlife Refuge protect large stretches of dunes, maritime forest and lakes, and the Flora-Bama on the Florida line is one of the most famous beach bars in the country.
