Family Activities during Event Downtime

The Alabama Gulf Coast is the perfect area to have fun on and off the field. Teams, coaches and fans will find plenty to do in this family-friendly location.

No games for the day? There is jam-packed fun for all ages at every corner. How about spending some time at local attractions such as a water park, the zoo or mini golf? There is plenty of exciting fishing action to get hooked on or you can also swing by one of the area’s top rated golf courses

Love to eat out? Well, you’re in luck because both Gulf Shores and Orange Beach have amazing restaurants with delectable seafood straight from the Gulf. There are also great places for pizza, Mexican, steak, pasta, and cheeseburgers. This means plenty of places for those picky little eaters to enjoy. 

With all this excitement, you’ll also need a place to just kick back and relax. Look no further than the gorgeous white sandy beaches on the Gulf of Mexico. It’s the ideal spot for unwinding after a tough game day.
