Jam Out to Live Music at The Hangout
This list is starting off on a musical note. You can’t come to Gulf Shores on Labor Day weekend and not visit The Hangout. This open-air restaurant is right on the beach, and like the name says – it’s the perfect place to come hang out. Over Labor Day weekend, there will be local bands and musicians taking the stage to play their serenades of summer. Come on down and grab some seafood, drinks, and dance your worries away. The Hangout is where you can come create lasting memories with friends and family as you sing along to your favorite songs. Be sure to add this to your Labor Day weekend itinerary in Gulf Shores.
Catch a Fish and Feast at Mikee’s
Are you an angler who is always looking to scope out the waters of a new place? Well, the waters off Gulf Shores are rich with all kinds of fish. This Labor Day weekend, why not get out on the water with a fishing charter? Choose from half-day or full-day trips where you can try to reel in red snapper, grouper, mackerel and more. The best part of a great fishing trip is the feasting that follows. After you reel in your catch, you can bring it to Mikee’s Seafood, where they’ll cook it up just how you like! Want it grilled, fried, blackened – Mikee’s has you covered. Honestly, it doesn’t get much fresher than that. Hook it and allow Mikee’s to cook it during your Labor Day weekend on Gulf Shores.
Sip on a Classic Bushwacker
Stay cool this Labor Day weekend with the Gulf Shores signature drink – the Bushwacker. Toast to the summer as you sip on this creamy blend of rum, coffee liqueur, and chocolate goodness. It’s basically a boozy milkshake that’s the perfect complement to any beach day. You can find versions of the Bushwacker at nearly every bar in town, but places like Bahama Bob’s and Pink Pony Pub are famous for theirs. If ever there was a drink to pair to celebrate the summer, it’s the Bushwacker. Pair your Bushwacker with a plate of delicious seafood and fully enjoy the moment.
Relax on Gulf Shores Beach
Sometimes, the best plan is having no plan at all. If you really wanted to plan for this, you could call it planning to relax. Head over to Gulf Shores Beach for a relaxing day on soft sand, clear waters, and a peaceful vibe that is just what’s needed before the busyness of September kicks in. Wade out in the waters, swim and boogie board with the kids, work on your tan from the shore, or catch up on the last few chapters of your book. Make a full day of it, with a picnic lunch, a beach tent, and all the necessities. It’s easy to spend the whole day beachside at the Gulf Coast. Savor these summer moments during your Labor Day weekend in Gulf Shores.
