What to Wear to the Beach This Year

Here on Alabama’s Gulf Coast, our sugar-white beaches are the main attraction! The hustle and bustle of beach-goers virtually hums year-round, as long as the sun shines! And, when you plan your beach vacation or weekend getaway, you’ll want to consider what to wear to the beach along with other must-have beach items. It’s easy to forget beach essentials when you’re planning the big beach adventure, so let our expertise guide you to what to wear to the beach!

Are you excited yet? With your beach vacation coming up, you’re going to need the best ideas for things to do on Alabama’s Gulf Coast! That’s why, at Sunset Properties, we’re offering our free Vacation Guide. With our guide, you’ll have the best trip to the Gulf Coast ever!

What to Wear to the Beach?

There are a few essentials you absolutely shouldn’t forget to bring for your trip to the beach. Here, we’ll cover those and a few extras that can help make your beach vacation the best it can be!

Swimsuit

When it comes to your swimsuit, there are two guiding principles on which you must rely. One, make sure it’s comfortable and fits correctly. And, two, make sure you remember to pack it! A beach vacation can be very uncomfortable if you don’t feel right in your swimsuit, and is guaranteed to be uncomfortable if you forget it altogether! But, even if you do, there are plenty of places to get a new one once you’re here. No matter what, you want something that is fun to wear and that you don’t have to constantly adjust!

Sunglasses

Sunglasses are non-negotiable when it comes to maintaining the health of your eyes. The amount of reflection off the water and sand can do serious damage without sunglasses. We recommend you bring UV-rated sunglasses with you on your beach adventure. That way, your eyes are protected and you don’t have to leave the beach early due to headaches and strain from the sun.

Sunscreen and Hats

Equally as important as sunglasses are sunscreen and headwear. Even on cloudy days, the sun can give you a nasty burn that will sour your trip. So, come prepared with a high-SPF-rated sunscreen, hats, and sun-blocking clothing. Your face, neck, and shoulders are oftentimes the first to burn, so be sure to wear a hat with a thorough application of sunscreen/sunblock to your neck and shoulders. We recommend naturally-derived sunscreens/sunblocks for a more chemical-free way to save your skin.

Footwear

It may seem like a no-brainer to most, but there are still plenty of people who go to the beach ill-prepared, donning tennis shoes or worse. So, when headed to the beach, skip fashionable and go for functional. Flip-flops, water shoes, and sandals are all great choices to bring as little sand back as possible!

Plan Your Beach Vacation to Alabama’s Gulf Coast

This summer, come to the sugar-white sands of Alabama’s Gulf Coast. Whether you’re looking for a quieter beach or the energy of the beach crowd, we’ve got it all down here. And, at Sunset Properties, we have the perfect beach house or condo for your stay. You’ll love the short walks to gorgeous beaches and the convenience our properties provide. So, browse our available properties and see for yourself how magical your next beach adventure can be! Then, contact us to book your stay! We are excited to host you!

What You Need to Know About the Sand Island Lighthouse

One of the more iconic attractions on Alabama’s Gulf Coast, the Sand Island Lighthouse will illuminate the history of the area in a picture-worthy way you won’t forget. The historic lighthouse stands roughly three miles from the mouth of Mobile Bay and has since its first keeper in 1839. Through a series of events like erosion and war, the structure has been rebuilt a few times. The rich history the lighthouse represents tells a story you’re going to love to learn. Here’s what you should know about the Sand Island Lighthouse.

Are you looking for the most incredible experiences on Alabama’s Gulf Coast? The Sand Island Lighthouse is definitely one of them! For the rest, though, be sure to download our free Vacation Guide! Here at Sunset Properties, we’re the experts on the area. So, have an unforgettable vacation using our guide. You’re going to love it!

Sand Island Lighthouse History

If you’ve been to Ft. Morgan, then you’ve seen the Sand Island Lighthouse. It sits about three miles offshore to the west between Ft. Morgan and Dauphin Island. Currently, the lighthouse is owned and protected by the city of Dauphin Island. However, once upon a time this was a federally owned lighthouse with all of the bells and whistles. The Sand Island Lighthouse was originally commissioned in 1837 and was completed in 1839. Because of varying factors, from inadequacy to erosion to the Civil War, the lighthouse has seen a handful of manifestations over the years.

Not long after the first lighthouse was completed, the extreme erosion of Sand Island severely affected its longevity. The island lost between 50 and 100 feet of beach a year. The once-grand, two-story keeper’s quarters decreased over the years because of the extreme erosion. In addition to the island disappearing, itself, several keepers went missing in storms throughout the years. The current lighthouse was originally lit in 1873, but the final keepers went missing as they tried to head to the main land to pick up their replacement. It is believed that a storm caused their boat to capsize with no one aware of their calamity. After these keepers disappeared, the lighthouse was automated and a little over a decade later the light house was decommissioned. In 1971, the Fort Morgan Museum archived the second-order Fresnel lens as a part of the area’s history.

Modern Efforts to Maintain the Lighthouse

Recently, the City of Dauphin Island began a massive rescue operation to save the deteriorating island on which the lighthouse sits. The rip rap, a series of boulders that act as a breakwater, was moved and rearranged to make everything more stable. The Island was then wrapped with stainless steel cables to help keep things in place. Work was also done on the lighthouse, itself, replacing missing bricks and mortar. Also, 1.4 million cubic yards of sand dredge were added to the island. So, our beautiful light house is sitting on white sand again!

You can visit the lighthouse via marina cruises from the Dauphin Island Marina, on which you’ll see some of the many great things Dauphin Island has to offer, too!
