If you’ve never been to Gulf Shores or Orange Beach, you might think the beaches are the only draw. True, the 32 miles of pristine coastline bordering the emerald waters of the Gulf of Mexico is the main attraction, but that’s only the beginning. Water activities, hiking and biking trails, fresh seafood, and southern hospitality make it an irresistible vacation spot for the whole family. The icing on the cake? When you attend one of the area’s concerts, attractions, or events that occur year-round.
