Cruise On Over to MySpace

Next month we’re kicking off another Grand Gulf Getaway Sweepstakes. As an eTidings subscriber, you’ll receive a special invitation to register for a week at the beach, along with food and fun for the whole family.

Watch your inbox in February.




Be a "Breaker"

College students think they need a Spring Break? How about those of juggling jobs and a non-stop schedule of soccer/ballet/band practices?

Springtime is the right time to relax, renew and let the whole family recover with a little Alabama Gulf Coast time. The sand is sugar-white, the water crystal blue. The sunsets will take your breath away. But the real beauty lies in the serene, unhurried atmosphere that lets you get close to the ones you love.

There are great deals to be found everywhere. Rates are hot on a variety of places to stay… from luxury hotel suites where you’re waited on hand and foot, and top-notch condominiums that offer the finest amenities to beach houses where you can kick back and feel right at home. And with special Packages and Hot Deals and easy on-line booking, planning is just a click away.

Whew! Is it getting warm down here or is it just us?




Ooops! We did it again

The Gulf Shores/Orange Beach area was once again named one of the top three favorite beach destinations for 2008 in the Southern Living’s “Best of the South” Readers' Choice Awards. And, not to brag or anything, but Alabama’s Gulf Coast has taken home that prize for 11 of the past 13 years!

We were also chosen as a favorite family destination along with the likes of Walt Disney World; Williamsburg, VA; and Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge, TN. And our Annual National Shrimp Festival was named in the Favorite Festival/Fair category.

"We'd like to thank the Academy"....Wait, that's not right. We'd like to thank all of you who visit us year after year and we'd like to invite those of you who aren't familiar with us to come see what all the fuss is about. We can't wait to share the magic of Alabama's beautiful beaches with all of you.




Cruise on over to MySpace

It won't be long now. Top down. Hair in the breeze. Cruisin' to the Alabama Gulf Coast for Spring Break. And the trip isn't complete without the perfect beach soundtrack. You know the songs - the ones that have you seat-dancing in the car, singing along at the top of your lungs. Yeah, those songs.

As you get ready for your road trip, head on over to MySpace.com/algulfcoast and take a listen to our top picks. Then share your thoughts. Do we have your faves listed? Let us know. Share your beach music memories with us in the comment section.
