Things to do in Gulf Shores, AL??

[JAB]

Sitting around Lulu's, sipping a Landshark Lager, and watching boats go by while listening to live local music passes the day nicely.

 

Yeah, when we first got there (and waited for about an hour to get a table) I wasn't just nuts about the 'touristy' nature of LuLu's but the live music they had the night we went was great and the atmosphere after they started playing was good.  It ended up being a lot more fun than I thought it was going to be.  It wouldn't be on my 'must go' list but if I were going to be in Gulf Shores long enough I would go back.

 

For those who don't know, the 'Lulu' of 'Lulu's' is Lucy 'Lulu' Buffet - Jimmy Buffet's sister.  Naturally, the menu features her version of a Cheeseburger in Paradise, among other things.

Places to eat:

Wolf Bay Lodge located at Zeks'Landing in Orange Beach.

Doc'sSeafood, One in Orange Beach abnd one in Gulf Shores

Oyster House in Gulf Shores

Wintzells Oyster House

Gratzies Italian Restaurant in Orange Beach. This is a good one.

 

Check the schedule for the Blue Angels practice. It is behind the museam but you have to be there early. Note, do not carry any fire arms to the base.

 

Rids

Riding bicycles in the area is great. Gulf State park has miles of walking and biking trails with lots of wildlife. Don't feed the gators.

Lots of great golf courses.

Probably no bargains on condos this time of year.
