Nothing like the jackasses that get up at 6am and go dump their crap right near the water line in front of everyone and then go up to the condo till 11am. OB pd will take your shite that you leave out after sunset.
We don't really do the beach anymore but went for like 30 years with my brothers, cousins, nieces and nephews. Like 4 generations and 20 or more of us some years.
I never understood the people who loved to hang out on the beach in the middle of the day. I'd get up early, set up our stuff, fish for a while. Head up, get breakfast and the kids, head down until 11am or so, head up to house during the heat of the day. Maybe drink a beer or two with lunch, chill out poolside or inside with a book, take a nap, avoid my wife dragging me into town for shopping, then head back down to the beach late afternoon into the evening and fish around dusk. Never really enjoyed the combination of blazing heat, saltwater and hot white sand.
We did love those vacations when our kids were little. Now that they're old enough we do the mountains out West, mainly focused on mountain biking but other outdoor adventure stuff as well.

Look up cool cabanas
Bought this specifically because of the Orange Beach rules. Now we use it everywhere, it’s great

We used ours for the first time this past weekend at a sand volleyball complex.
I carried it out to the sand along with a chair and a beer.
Sat my beer down and had the cabana set up in like 3 minutes and I'm not kidding. It worked great.

How do you like the interior height of it?
Do you have to duck while under it? I’m 6’3” so wondering how that would be. Obviously you’ll have chairs to sit in, but.

No issues, but I’m under 6ft. Both my kids play a lot of sand volleyball so that’s what we are mainly using it for.

There isn’t enough beach for the amount of people the newer Phoenix towers hold.
I’m never renting one of those again.

Grew up going to OB, GS, Perdido Key back before highrises, when there were actual dunes and the only place to buy a loaf of bread between GS and Pensacola was at Mrs. McNeill's store at the pass. I can't bear to go there anymore, as that whole stretch is now just a high-rise concrete suburb by the water. Depressing as hell.

We had a house out toward Ft. Morgan prior to my birth in 73. I grew up going down there for 2 weeks of the summer at least. It was wild and free back then. Hurricane Fredrik wiped out the cabin and property was sold. My family continued to go to the area until about 5 years ago, steadily moving East toward and past Seaside. We've finally thrown up our hands and kind of given up on it. We debated making the commitment to St. George or Dog Island to try to find the "old Florida" but everyone has kind of gone their own ways with where they want to vacation.
