Thirty-two miles of sugary-white sand, a warm gulf breeze and abundant fresh seafood those are just three reasons why millions of people visit Alabama 's Gulf Coast every year. It is not your typical vacation destination. The clear turquoise water is beyond ordinary. Combine beauty with the smell of cocoa butter, a salty spray, and the friendliest people you'll ever meet, and you've got paradise. But that's not all. The Orange Beach/Gulf Shores area is also one of the hottest recreation and retirement destinations in America with waterfront and golf course communities selling out as quickly as can be constructed. In fact, golfing legends Arnold Palmer and Larry Nelson designed three courses with 54-holes and there are several other signature courses in the area as well. If you would rather hit the surf than the turf, then grab your rod and reel or cast net. The Alabama Gulf Coast offers some of the best saltwater fishing opportunities in the nation. For the children, there are plenty of activities from amusement parks to nature trails. History buffs can tour Fort Morgan and go back in time 400 years to the Battle of Mobile Bay. There are countless reasons why people come to Alabama's Gulf Coast. All it takes is one visit, and you'll see for yourself why they continue to come back.
