Rebuilding new section with floating docks.
Fun Tiki bar on site with live music & tasty food.
Echo's favorite part was the very close off leash dog park ( just be careful & keep pups paws clean when crossing in the working marina )

We've been stopping by The Sportsman for several years. They have a great tiki bar and a very nice restaurant on the other side. They are our goto for brunch everytime we're in Orange Beach.

We just started keeping our boat here.... (three weeks ago). Two weekends in a row we stopped by on late afternoon Monday after taking our boat out on Sunday. Our boat was STILL in the water, 24 hours after returning to the marina. This means the engine had NOT been flushed yet. When we called to inquire about keeping our both there they told us as long as we were back before 4:30, it would be taken out that day, and if it were after 4:30 it will be taken out the next morning. NOW Today- we called to have them put it in the water (PERFECT day to offshore fish) and the Fork lift is broke/ so they can’t!!! Seriously??? You have ONE forklift that reaches the top rack??? If you want your boat taken care of the right way- OR you want to even use it on any given WEDNESDAY...... I’d recommend trailering it, or keeping it elsewhere!!! Not a fan of salt-water staying in the engines for 24 hours plus! Our boat has been there three days short of three weeks.
