    "Gulf Shores is definitely a tourist hotspot. When weekends come you can't really get a good parking spot at the beaches, so be prepared to walk. Also, most beaches here do not allow your pets at all. If you have a cabana at the beach, you'll be far back and not closer to the water. This place is pricey when it comes to eating out. I'd say overall, it is a great vacation spot. "

  • Helpful Hints
    "If you're considering moving here from out of state there are a few things to consider first. The public schools aren't all that good. The groceries are expensive. There isn't a really good night life here, incase you're needing a night out. Most restaurants we've been to allow smoking. The school bus driver yelled and pointed in the children's faces most of the time throughout the year. "

    "The Rookery. It’s quaint breath taking it’s like your living in your own little island. Beautiful bridge landscaping pools areas to eat and entertain. Walking path across from the beach . People drive around in golf carts not cars , restaurants a little drive down the main road and a grocery store. The people there are so nice they talk to you and welcome you straight away want to know you offer help and want to meet you again . Our first night socializing we had a conversation with every one around the bar . So unusual but fantastic. It doesn’t matter if you are retired newly married a server or a golden globe winner your all treated the same . I finally found home . "
