Just returned from a weeks worth of playing in the sand and doing a little fishing over in the Redneck Rivera, Gulf Shores, Alabama. First trip to that part of the Gulf and really enjoyed the area.
Stayed at the Seawind condos on the beach that the wife found. Less than a mile west of the intersection of Gulf Shores Pkwy and E. Beach Rd. Nothing fancy, but clean and easy.
Booked a fishing trip for Ashton, Breck and myself with Captain Ringo Nelson per a TBH members recommendation and had a blast. I must admit, this was my first guided fishing trip....ever, so nothing to compare it to. But in my opinion, could not have hit a further home run for my first guided trip. I told him when I booked, I have no problem being a first mate, just put my kids on fish. He did not disappoint.
Two of the places that I really enjoyed eating at was Steamers and O'Choppers in Orange Beach. Both had really great food at a reasonable price.
Ft. Morgan was very interesting to me and enjoyed walking around it.
Besides loosing my last seasons Angadi hat to the first days big waves and strong currents.....was a great time with the wife and kids. All in all, fun laid back place that I would do again.
A few pictures of the fishing trip below.
