Review:

Orange Beach is a popular hub for watersports along Alabama's Gulf Coast, located conveniently between Mobile and Pensacola, Florida. The beachfront city, which overlooks beautiful Mobile and Perdido Bays, is home to the Gulf's second-longest pier and is a great choice for families looking for a beach getaway. The Wharf entertainment complex offers a laser tag arena, a mini golf course, and one of the Southeast's tallest Ferris wheels, while the nearby Park at OWA boasts high-thrill rides and roller coasters.

Families will also love the Alabama Gulf Coast Zoo, popularized as the "Little Zoo That Could" by Animal Planet.

Kid-friendly dolphin and fishing charters are offered by excursion companies, with fun pirate-themed cruises available for the entire family. 32 miles of pristine white sand beaches won't disappoint, with lifeguards on duty to watch over young ones between March and September.
