Best Ways to Discover the Alabama Gulf Coast

Discover by Land
The 32 miles of white-sand beaches on the Alabama Gulf Coast are breathtaking, but if you are looking for a change of pace, get your toes out of the beach sand for a little while and hopefully not into the bunkers at one of the signature

golf courses in the area. Each of these courses are visually spectacular. Try the challenging Earl Stone designed course at Rock Creek Golf Course in Fairhope and Timber Creek Gold Club in Spanish Fort or experience the affordable links-style, 27-hole championship layout at Glenlakes Golf Club in Foley. Travel to Perdido Key to play Lost Key Golf Club. (Don't forget to stop at the Flora-Bama, the infamous bar on the Alabama-Florida line.) Three of these courses - Peninsula Golf & Racquet Club, Kiva Dunes Golf Resort and Cotton Creek/Cypress Bend courses at Craft Farms Golf Resort are all within 30 miles of each other. Now that's a golf paradise! After all…birdies and bogeys go better with an gulf view!

Discover by Sea

It's anchors away when you visit Gulf Shores and Orange Beach this summer! Make a splash in the Gulf of Mexico with one of the many fishing charters. Whether you are just cruising, dolphin spotting, sailing into the sunset or deep sea fishing, there is something for every member of the family to enjoy. Sea la vie!

Discover from the Top

Another way to explore Alabama's Gulf Coast is by enjoying the view from above by staying in one of the towering beach condos! Listen to the roaring waves as soon as you roll out of bed, enjoy your morning coffee on the balcony, and enjoy a day full of fun on your personal beach paradise. Don't forget the ocean view!

Discover Dockside

The gulf is always buzzing with excitement, from boats to marine life, kayaks, jet skis, parasailing and more! Enjoy a spectacular view of all of these activities while you dine dockside at Tacky Jacks in Orange Beach, Gulf Shores or Fort Morgan. Tacky Jacks is always packed with live entertainment, a fun atmosphere, delicious cuisine for breakfast, lunch and dinner, and delicious tropical drinks…including the infamous coastal favorite- The Bushwacker!
