39th Annual Gulf Shores Shrimp Festival Oct. 7-10
Fall is officially here!!!!! We have some great happenings at the beach this fall, including the 39th Annual National Shrimp Festival. This year it is the weekend of October 7th thru Sunday the 10th. If you have never been here for the Shrimp Festival, it is certainly an event not to miss. Great food, that ranges from seafood to typical fair food, that brings back memories of those childhood visits to the state fair.
The food is not the only reason to attend however, there are great vendors and you can purchase beach inspired clothes, jewelery, and artwork of any scale! Some of my favorite pieces are the giant metal sculptures of life size sea creatures, and the resin cartoonish ones that bring a smile to everyone’s face. Don’t forget about the musical performances each day you have choices of two different stages to listen to music continously through out the festival. The kids are not left out at shrimp festival. There is a family friendly sand sculpture contest, and a Children Activity Village, for your little ones to create their own masterpiece! A Chef’s Challenge is something you don’t want to miss as the top five finalists consists of some of the best chef’s in our area showcasing their talents in the kitchen to create new dining delights for visitors to our area.
We have some great specials for you come for a couple of days or a long weekend to enjoy the fun and events of Shrimp Festival, and then the piece and quiet of Ft. Morgan, only 20 minutes from the festival shuttles! Prices start as low as $199.00 for 2 nights! Give us a call today!!!!
9/24/10 The Dunes Beach Update
It’s another beautiful day at the Dunes Beach in Fort Morgan! As some of you may have seen a few weeks ago, we started a “frizzy hair scale” to gauge the level of humidity outside. As you can tell by Katie’s do (I believe she compared it to Kramer’s), today is a very hot, humid, and windy day. There is a 30 percent chance of rain, so we’re hoping that will cool things off out there! The beach is absolutely beautiful today though. There are several people out playing in the water and enjoying the beach! We wish you could be out there with them!! Hope to see you guys soon!
Enjoy! 9/24/10 Beach Update
