The Track in Gulf Shores offers the fastest family entertainment attractions with arcade games and go-kart tracks for every age level. Race the Wild Woody, the three-tiered wooden track that spirals three stories high, and back down and around again like a roller coaster. Or take a spin on the classic track, complete with overpasses. They’ve got single and double-seated karts to make sure everyone in the family has a great time. They also have the most exciting themed mini-golf course around, the River Boat Adventure Golf, where you are guaranteed to encounter jungle animals, walk through dark tunnels, and play through beautiful waterfalls! Pick a club, place your ball, and challenge your friends to the top of the leader board.
The Track also has a great way to cool the family off when it’s hot in Gulf Shores by hopping in their bumper boats, and many rides geared especially for our pint-sized patrons! For more adventurous ages, the Skycoaster allows thrill-seekers to freefall
from up to 110 feet at speeds of up to 70 mph, then recover barely 6 feet off the ground. The Track is located just north of the Intracoastal Waterway Bridge in Gulf Shoes. Call (251) 968-8111 for more details.

For one of the island’s best meals, try the steaks, seafood, or pastas at Ginny Lane’s Bar and Grill. Satisfy your sweet tooth at Dippin’ Dots or grab a cup of coffee at the island’s only Starbuck’s. But just wait! This development is only getting started. Look for the new Live Bait at the Wharf, Voodoos-by the founders of New Orleans infamous Tipitina’s, and others opening early 2007 to add to the unique dining and nightlife experiences at the Wharf.
