TIPS FOR VISITING THE ALABAMA BEACHES
- Orange Beach and Gulf Shores Alabama have beautiful white sand beaches and are not well known outside of the south.
- Dauphin Island is another one of the popular beaches in the area.
- Orange Beach has more high rise rental properties and a lot of restaurants. Gulf Shores is more laid back with surf shops, mini golf and other things like that.
- Sunset cruises are better when you are trying to see dolphins. They are more active in the evening and during the day, the sun light makes it hard to see them and get good photos.
- GulfQuest Maritime Museum is a bit far from the beach areas, but if you are looking for a indoor activity to do if it’s raining or you just need to get out of the sun for a day, this is a great place to go. The museum itself is laid out similarly to an actual ship. Instead of being called floor one, floor two, est. they are named deck one, deck two, etc.
TIP OF THE WEEK
Laura’s Vacation Rentals and Young’s Suncoast Rentals are the rental agencies that we have used to find great places to stay in the Alabama beach areas.
