Local Bars

If you want the Gulf Shores and Orange Beach local experience, visit some local bars. Take a seat at the bar and order a Bushwacker while getting to know the locals and others visiting from out of town. If you're looking for a place to kick back and relax, you'll find lounges and sports bars where you can do that.

Incredible Food

You can't visit the Gulf without enjoying at least a few great meals. Visit one of the many Orange Beach and Gulf Shores restaurants in the area for a delicious meal that you'll remember long after your vacation is over. Look for outdoor seating where you can enjoy your dinner while watching the sun go down, or find a restaurant with great views of the water. Look for culinary festivals during the fall and delicious, fresh Gulf Coast seafood year-round.

Live Music

There's always music playing in Gulf Shores and Orange Beach. From country singer-songwriters to Cajun dancing music, you'll find some of the best of the Gulf Shores and Orange Beach nightlife scene. Be sure to check the Calendar of Events to find out what live entertainment you can catch when you're in town. If you're visiting at the end of May, try to make it to the Hangout Music Festival. Past performers have included The Foo Fighters, The Black Keys and Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers.

Hangout Music Festival - Event Page

SINGING AND DANCING

After a couple of drinks, you'll probably be in the mood to hit the dance floor. Both live bands and DJs will be playing music that will keep you up and moving through the night. If you're feeling extra brave, look for the bars offering karaoke and open mic nights. Take your turn performing and show off your talent to the crowd.

Girls or Guys Night Out

Get the group together and plan your night out. From bachelor parties to birthday blowouts, Gulf Shores and Orange Beach offer the perfect spots for celebrating. Check out the cigar bar, order a round of fruity drinks at a tiki bar or toast to your vacation together with a craft cocktail.

Family Friendly Fun

The Gulf Shores nightlife isn't just for the adults. If you're looking for family-friendly after-hour activities, you're in luck. When visiting during the summer months, you'll find that many attractions stay open later. Enjoy a family game of mini golf, visit the amusement park rides and check out the water parks. Many have later hours of operation in the summer.

Whether you're looking for a casual evening out or some late night fun, you'll find the Gulf Shores nightlife spot for you. Order your Gulf Shores & Orange Beach Vacation Guide to see what else you have to look forward to during your next vacation. Book your lodging today with a Gulf Shores or Orange Beach hotel, condo or house rental this season!
