Gulf Shores and Orange Beach

"Fall is a great time to visit the area, which is transitioning from a fast-paced summer to a more relaxed fall season," said Herb Malone, president/CEO of the Alabama Gulf Coast Convention and Visitors Bureau. "So far, none of the storms in the Gulf have caused any significant damage in our area. This fall, the Gulf Shores and Orange Beach area showcases a wide variety of activities and events for every type of guest."

Plan a Getaway on the Gulf Coast

With luxurious accommodations and succulent seafood, enjoy a day full of attractions or go to the beach and do nothing. Girlfriends can reconnect with a much needed girlfriend's getaway or shop till everyone drops, then go pamper those tired muscles at local spas.

Golf and Fishing on the Gulf Coast

Meanwhile, the guys have an opportunity to bond during a round on any of the area's nine signature courses. Accept the challenge of links-style golf or wetland preserves or bait the rods for a memorable trip aboard a chartered fishing boat. Navigate the back bays and bayous or set sail for an exciting offshore fishing trip. Reeling in a great time should be no problem since Alabama's coastal waters have more artificial fishing reefs than any other state in the nation. Fulfill that need for competition with a full line-up of fall sporting events from the Alabama Gulf Coast Sports Commission.

National Shrimp Festival

Party with the king of prawns at the 37th Annual National Shrimp Festival October 9-12 at the main public beach in Gulf Shores or find a feathered friend at the fall bird banding session, slated for October 4-17.

More Events

Check out the Pepsi Star Series at The Wharf, the Gulf Shores Out and In Concert Series and the 24th Annual Frank Brown Songwriters Festival. Also view a world-class Civil War shipwreck treasure exhibit at the nearby Baldwin County Heritage Museum.
