The Gulf Highlands neighbourhood offers attractions, such as Kiva Dunes Golf Course and Fort Morgan Beach.

A coastal cityscape with a beach, high-rise buildings, and a clear sky.

Surf Side Shores

Fort Morgan's Surf Side Shores gives you beachfront bliss without the tourist crush. Pristine Gulf shores and quiet sandy streets create a perfect retreat for swimming, fishing, and dolphin spotting. The area offers crystal-clear waters and stunning sunset views that'll have you forgetting to check your phone. Holiday rentals range from cosy cottages to luxury Gulf-front homes, most with full kitchens and private beach access. You'll need wheels to reach restaurants and groceries in Gulf Shores, just 15 minutes away. Pack supplies before arriving to maximise your time watching waves roll in.

Cabana Beach

Fort Morgan's Cabana Beach area offers the perfect Gulf Coast escape where pristine shorelines and holiday rentals await. Dolphin sightings greet early risers while spectacular orange-pink sunsets cap off each day. The wide sandy beaches provide ample space for swimming, fishing, and peaceful walks along natural dune landscapes dotted with sea oats. Most accommodation feature full kitchens and private beach access, making self-catering a breeze. While the area has minimal dining options, the quiet residential atmosphere and natural Gulf wave sounds create the perfect backdrop for relaxation. A personal vehicle is essential for reaching nearby Fort Morgan town or Gulf Shores for restaurants and shopping.

Plash Island

Morgantown

Morgantown wraps you in Gulf Shore beauty with long stretches of pristine beach just waiting for your footprints. History buffs can geek out at Fort Morgan, a 19th-century military fort where Civil War stories come alive between those weathered brick walls. Nature lovers hit the jackpot at Bon Secour Wildlife Refuge, where sea turtles nest and migratory birds put on quite the show. You'll want a hire car to properly explore this laid-back coastal area. Fresh seafood shacks serve up just-caught Gulf treasures, while beach houses and condos with private beach access make the perfect home base. The peaceful vibe here feels worlds away from more touristy spots, especially during the golden hour when the sunset paints everything in warm light.

Top landmarks in Gulf Shores

Gulf Shores Beach

9.4/10 (3,388 reviews)

If you can't wait to get to the beach, you might enjoy a trip to Gulf Shores Beach – one of the most popular seaside spots located 1 mi (1.6 km) from central Gulf Shores. Enjoy the sunset by the shore at West Beach.

Alabama Gulf Coast Zoo

8.4/10 (365 reviews)

It's feeding time at the zoo! If you want to be reminded of some of the great animals our world is home to, you might want to pay a visit to Alabama Gulf Coast Zoo, located 4.7 mi (7.5 km) from central Gulf Shores. Hotels.com travellers also say the area is full of friendly people and that it has lots of nice beaches. If you have fun at Alabama Gulf Coast Zoo, you'll love Waterville USA and Tropic Falls at OWA, both located nearby.

Gulf Shores and related destinations

Barefoot on sugar-white beaches, you'll wonder why Florida gets all the attention when Alabama's Gulf Coast offers this pristine paradise. Dolphins play offshore while pelicans dive dramatically for their lunch. Gulf State Park combines beaches with wilderness trails where you might spot alligators sunning themselves. The Alabama Gulf Coast Zoo lets you get surprisingly close to lemurs and kangaroos. After sunset, seafood restaurants serve shrimp fresh off the boats while local musicians provide the soundtrack. Orange Beach offers a quieter alternative when the main beaches fill with families. Waterville USA provides water slides when you've had enough salt water, though locals insist the real fun happens on deep-sea fishing charters.
