The beaches along the Alabama Gulf Coast are a favorite summer destination for many vacationers (there’s a reason why we call summer the “busy season” !!). But when summer turns to fall, things start to slow down around here. While the chilly air may be coming, there is still much to enjoy on a fall beach vacation. Just look at all the fun activities awaiting you during an autumnal stay on our coast!
1. Have a beach picnic
It may be getting colder, but we are still at the beach!!! Beach picnics are such a cozy activity for the fall season, especially when paired with a warm, golden sunset. A cloudy beach day is also perfect for a moody chilly vibe! Bring your blankets, a warm drink, and a hobby item such as a book, paint supplies, crochet supplies, etc.
2. Go on a walk through our state park
Gulf Coast State Park is a must-visit area during any time of the year, but there is definitely a warm and refreshing vibe to the park once fall rolls around. The slight chill in the breeze rustles through the trees, and you can even see some leaves turning warm! This is a wonderful activity to get in some exercise and to appreciate the other beautiful nature areas aside from the beach.
3. Have a photoshoot on the beach
This time of the year is absolutely AMAZING for beach photos—cinematic winds, less humidity and sweat, cool sand… it is a recipe for perfection. Whether you want to bring the fam to get beautiful family pics, grab your hunny for a romantic scene, or do a solo shoot, we think the fall season is a great time to get some beach shots.
4. Take a dip in a hot tub
What does everyone dream about doing when the air gets a bit too crisp? taking a dip in a hot tub, of course! Liquid Life offers plenty of vacation rentals that include hot tub access—both communal and private! Take a look at these rentals if you’d like a nice relaxing spa all to yourself.
