Gulf Shores—An Insider's Seaside Getaway
Less than 3.5 hours away from New Orleans are some of the most dazzling white sand beaches and crystal clear waters. There is golf, nature trails, water sports and deep-sea fishing. Florida? No. It’s a bit of a local’s secret that all of this, and more, can be found in Alabama at Gulf Shores and Orange Beach. Information of where to stay is easy to find on one central website which also shows a full calendar of events including music concerts, fishing competitions, a triathlon and the popular Wharf Uncorked Wine & Culinary Event in September.
