Learn more about Vacasa Premium Clean >Gulf Shores lies at Alabama's southern tip. It's right across the Florida state line, putting you only 17 miles from Perdido Key and 34 miles from Pensacola. The same fantastic beaches lie on either side of the border so you won't need to cross over too often. If you'd like to participate in the annual Flora-Bama Mullet Toss (the fish, not the haircut), however, you'll need to be on the Florida side!
Our Gulf Shores condos and vacation rentals provide access to legendary beaches with soft white sands and gentle gulf waves, ideal for year-round getaways. It's no wonder that the beaches draw top-tier talent to the Hangout Music Festival every spring. Fall visitors can enjoy delicious seafood at the National Shrimp Festival instead. Whenever you visit, make sure to swing by LuLu's Gulf Shores for a bite to eat and live music.
