Happiness can be found at the beach!

International Day of Happiness is this Tuesday, which also happens to be the first day of spring! We are ecstatic to welcome spring because it means warmer and longer beach days to spend with our friends and family! 

For most of us happiness on the Gulf Coast comes down to enjoying the beautiful scenery that is available at every turn. From seeing the dolphins play in the early morning sun to watching the sunset as we stroll across the gorgeous sugary white beaches but those are the obvious things. We asked around to find out what makes our coworkers and friends happy and we got a multitude of answers and some great suggestions of things to do while visiting us here in Orange Beach & Gulf Shores.  

Some people simply enjoyed riding their bikes on the backcountry trails, while some were adventurous and enjoyed parasailing and taking helicopter tours. But If you’re looking for some happiness that falls somewhere in between those we have suggestions for that too. 

The Gulf State Park Fishing Pier is sure to bring you happiness. It’s the place to be if you want to get a good look at some sea life and if you’re a photographer you can get some great shots of people reeling in a big catch. For our animal lovers you will enjoy spending time at the Alabama Gulf Coast Zoo. They have incredible encounter attractions where you can actually hold some of the animals! 

For our foodies, we definitely suggest Cobalt the Restaurant. You'll love the casual and relaxing atmosphere along with water front dining and live music! The view alone is sure to make you the happiest of happy. 

To sum it all up we’re just happy to be on the Gulf Coast and we think you'd be happy here too. It’s time to get back to the beach! We want to share our happiness with you and your family!
