While spending the past week in Orange Beach, I thought it might be a fun idea to create a travel guide! My parents have had a place in Orange Beach for about 10 years, so we have become familiar enough with the area for me to share some of the best places (in our opinion) down there. If you have anything to add, please be sure to leave a comment at the end of the post!

Our Favorite Restaurants
Florabama Yacht Club-the Greek shrimp nachos and chargrilled oysters are 2 of our favorites!
Ole River Grill- another Florabama restaurant with delicious seafood
Cobalt- this is where Ebie and Patrick's wedding reception was! Delicious food with beautiful views.
Tacky Jacks- you must get the Mexican Garbage (the best nachos!)
Cosmos- good seafood and dog friendly. Parker and I went for lunch one day and split a few delicious appetizers- sautéed crawfish tails, crab claws, and firecracker shrimp. We also like their sushi, but they don't start serving it until after 3 on weekdays.
Master Joe's- best. sushi. ever. The sushi pizza is a winner even if you're not a huge sushi fan. It is so unique and delicious!
Sunset Grill- we ate here for our last dinner at the beach. We got the grouper bites as an appetizer and all highly suggest them.
Anchor Bar & Grill- my mom and dad kept talking about how amazing this place is! I've never been but hope to go next time I'm down there.
Brick & Spoon- Best brunch
Cactus Cantina-Best Mexican at Orange Beach
Lulus- fun atmosphere and delicious Krispey Kreme bread pudding! (actually in Gulf Shores)
Acme Oyster House- most delicious seafood restaurant at the beach! (actually in Gulf Shores)
Shopping
The Wharf- perfect place for the whole family! You can find shops, restaurants, a movie theater, an amphitheater, Dippin Dots, and daiquiris here!
SanRoc Cay- an entertainment district with several cute little local shops and restaurants
Tanger Outlets- perfect rainy day activity! The outlets are actually located in Foley, but not too bad of a drive from Orange Beach.
