Your Gulf Shores & Orange Beach experience
Alabama’s Beaches in the fall and winter are pure magic. Daytime temps range from the high-60s to mid-50s, with comfortable, crisp evenings — perfect for long walks on 32 miles of sugar-white beaches. Crowds thin after summer, giving you a wide-open shoreline, peaceful turquoise waters, and space to truly unwind.
Outdoor adventures thrive here — explore Gulf State Park’s hiking and biking trails, go on a dolphin cruise in the Gulf, or wander through Historic Fort Morgan. Food festivals, car shows, live music, and holiday happenings add a local, festive touch to your trip. Learn more about Gulf State Park: https://www.alapark.com/parks/gulf-state-park
