The Wharf in Orange Beach

The Wharf2If you have recently purchased real estate in Orange Beach, check out The Wharf for family fun, great food and tons of entertainment options.

The Wharf is two stories full of shops for your whole family. Breath Athletic Wear, Seaside Shoes and Shades Sunglasses are just a few examples of the stores you should visit at The Wharf. There is also a variety of dining options available, such as Driftwood Bar and Grille, Ronin Sushi Bar and Restaurant, and Montego’s Caribbean Café and Bar.

There is an endless amount of entertainment provided by The Wharf. The Wharf Putt Putt is a great option. Challenge your family to a friendly competition and treat whoever wins to a ride on the Ferris wheel! The Ferris wheel is one thing that makes this area famous. It is considered a landmark of Orange Beach and gives you the best view of the gulf. The SPECTRA Sound and Light Spectacular is a must while visiting The Wharf. During SPECTRA, Main Street is transformed into a magical stage where the palm trees come to life with color. The shows are unlike anything else and created with audiences of all ages in mind.

Another thing that makes The Wharf famous is the Amphitheater. Hundreds of concerts are held at the Amphitheater every year. Shinedown, Twenty One Pilots, Train and Miranda Lambert are all scheduled to play in August and September. From Chris Young to ZZ Top, The Wharf’s Amphitheater has seen it all!

After settling in your new Orange Beach real estate, head on over to The Wharf and enjoy some quality family time at one of the area’s best attractions.
