Coastal Currents - News & Events on the Gulf Coast

Never before have such bountiful beach bargains launched in mid-August and continued throughout fall until the end of October (including special festival weekends). And never before have you been able to rent just 2 nights in a condo at a 50% discount. Houses are even offered at a 50% discount with a 4-night minimum stay.

Think about what this means for you, your family and all your friends. Basically, you spend a great weekend at the beach leaving your stress behind, you pay for one night and one night is FREE in a condo. Or stay four nights in a house, pay for two and two nights are FREE.

You’ll still have super weather, without the crowds of a typical summer. And the bonus is that the early fall and fall rates (even before the 50% discount) are already discounted 30–40% off summer rates.

Convinced? We hope so, because it is our pleasure to welcome you to our shores. Book online or call 866-200-9136 and provide promo code XF50 (more details).

Watch the experts create amazing art as the magic unfolds right in front of your eyes at The Hot Shop at Orange Beach Arts Center. Or create your very own ornament or paperweight that will forever serve as a reminder of the good times at the beach.

The Hot Shop at Orange Beach Arts Center was established in 2009 and is the only public-access glass studio in the state of Alabama. The Studio is dedicated to educating the community about glassblowing, sculpture and art. We featured one of their fascinating glass-blowing demonstrations on our Current Beach Conditions videos on June 17, entitled Blow Fish & Bays in Orange Beach.

Once you know your next vacation dates, call us or book online to schedule your trip. Then call 251-981-2787 to coordinate a day and time to watch a demonstration by the extraordinary glass artists at The Hot Shop or to reserve a spot in the “Make Your Own Glass” class during your trip to the coast.
