Hey everyone! Today is July 3rd, which means that a very special day is right around the corner… the Fourth of July! Tomorrow millions of Americans will be spending this day celebrating our independence, and appreciating the history of our country. We know that so many of you are already down at the beach celebrating by enjoying America’s Gulf Coast, so we wanted to highlight just a few fun things that are happening in OBA/Gulf Shores:
What’s the first thing you think of when you think of the Fourth of July? Fireworks of course! We encourage you to come out to Gulf State Park Pier’s annual fireworks show, which will be popping off right at 9 p.m. You can watch these fireworks on the beach or any area near the pier. Just make sure you get there a bit early to secure the spot you want! More fireworks will be happening on into the weekend at places like OWA and The Wharf, so you’ll definitely get your fireworks fix in during your vacation!
There are several fun events happening within one of the properties we proudly manage—Beach Village Resort! In addition to the stunning cottages and exquisite pool, there are events happening onsite from Thursday into the weekend. These include a hot dog cookout at the pool, crafts, a movie night, and live music! Beach Village Resort is always having fun events for guests to enjoy, especially on holidays!
There is so much fun to be had for our community’s Independence Day celebration! There are a couple of fun-runs hosted by Flora-Bama and The Wharf, as well as street parties, Fourth of July shopping/dining deals, street parties, live music, etc. Make sure to check out these websites to get informed on all the events!
We hope you join us this year for the holiday, or at least get inspired to do so next year! Start planning your beach vacation now and have an amazing Fourth of July!
