FLORIDA MOM MAGAZINE - August '08 - Summer Vacation - Perdido Beach, Alabama

By: Robert Candler

Something magical happens when you visit Perdido Beach, Alabama. The moment you arrive, the world starts to fade away. Maybe it's the sound of waves gently lapping the shore or the smell of coconut oil. Perhaps it's the white sand Gulf Coast beaches and sparkling emerald water. Suddenly building sandcastles moves to the top of your "to-do" list. You remember just how much fun your 'sweetie' is. You find yourself laughing at your son's "Knock, knock" joke, even though you've heard it a million times. You venture out to ancient forts and historic museums, where nobody rushes you to do anything. Two words come to mind .... Total Relaxation

Gulf Shores, Alabama has 32 miles of sugar-white beaches, reasonable prices, great seafood, and a number of family attractions in addition to its miles of shores.
