Gulf Shores Public Beach, Alabama, United States
4.5 (461 reviews) Spent Ranking #4 in Gulf Shores Beaches
Other beaches in the area.
If you want to pay for parking, people watch, access to toilets and rentals, then go to the public beach. But know that there are other public beaches that are less crowded. We enjoyed the beach with no traffic, no seaweed, and no parking fee, BUT no amenities - on the Ft. Morgan end. The fishing beach a great for walking and shelling, too.

Great spot
This was our first time to visit a public beach on our vacation. We visited early afternoon and while slightly crowded, we didn't have any trouble finding a good spot. There is a cost for parking, based on how many hours you want to stay. But, there's no trouble finding parking spots. There are chair and umbrella rentals available. The pavilion also has bathrooms with showers. And there's a small restaurant on site as well. Everything was clean and it wasn't noisy for us.

Wonderful beach
This was our first time here on Gulf Shores public beach and it was a wonderful experience. Just like any other services that we have encountered why staying in Gulf Shores the city does a fantastic job of keeping the city roads and beaches clean and welcoming to everyone. We enjoyed walking up and down the city beach and it was wonderful. The tide had come out and there was a lot of seaweed to be picked up but the sand and water are great. Free beach parking is always a plus when visiting this beach and we will surely return to Gulf Shores in the future.
