Best Ways to Spend Time Between Summer Events
Gulf Shores & Orange Beach
Good game, everyone! So, now what is there to do? Don't worry - no matter what type of sporting event, athletes, teams, coaches and fans will find as much excitement afterward as they did during their championship or tournament.
Those in town for sun, sand and sports will find plenty of choices in entertainment and food.
1. Waves and Sand –The obvious choice while you’re at the beach? Why, the beach itself, of course! With its sugary white sand and brilliant blue water, you won’t find prettier beaches than those in Alabama. Athletes will love building sandcastles, wading or swimming in the water, basking in the sun, listening to the tranquil sounds of the waves, or even just catching a power nap. However you like to spend time on the beach, it’s an excellent way to unwind after a big event.
2. Attractions Galore – A cool option on a hot summer day is a team trip to Bronze sponsor Waterville USA in Gulf Shores, which is a giant water park for kids of all ages. Huge slides, a wave pool, and the Flowrider will put the thrill in thrill-seeking. Just looking to chill after the big event? Float down a lazy river for a relaxing day instead. During the summer months, music lovers will enjoy dancing the night away at a concert at Diamond sponsor The Wharf or any of numerous local venues boasting top-notch local entertainers.
3. Delicious Eats –Now that you’ve worked up an appetite, seafood grubbers and land lubbers will find many establishments for team dinners. Fresh, straight-out-of-the-gulf seafood is served at many places. Our team features beach dives such as Champion sponsor Sea N Suds, upscale dining at places like Bronze sponsor Cobalt the Restaurant, and everything in between. And numerous kid-friendly restaurants with appealing children’s menus are located in every corner.
4. A “Reel” Good Time – If you love to fish, you won’t want to miss out on reeling in a big one on the Gulf of Mexico. The fishing is second to none here on the Alabama Gulf Coast! Bronze sponsor Reel Surprise Charters has captains who are ready to take you offshore in order to find that catch of a lifetime. If you don’t have the sea legs for an offshore deep sea adventure, or you have small children in tow, inshore trips are also available and just as fun.
5. A Round or Two –Are you a golf enthusiast? Don’t forget to pack your clubs so you can play on one of the world-class courses located in the area. Swing by Champion sponsor Kiva Dunes or one of the Bronze sponsor Honours Golf courses for challenging golf with unique designs and lush scenery. (Can’t pack the clubs? No worries! Rent a set from the pro shops.)
