This is a great marina in Orange Beach, Alabama. They have a Dock Store with beach apparel, fishing…read moreclothing and souvenirs. They also have a restaurant, Shipp's Dockside Grill, that has casual dining downstairs and full service dining upstairs. They also offer charters along with yacht and engine repairs.

Orange Beach Marina is where we boarded the "Distraction," Captain Troy Frady's 42 foot charter…read moreboat for a six hour charter. There are other charter boats in the marina of course. I've only used Captain Frady's charter here and highly highly recommend him, his crew, and his Hatteras Sportfisher, "Distraction." For dining, Shipps has two restaurants at the marina, "Lower Deck" which is casual counter service restaurant (opens at 11 AM daily) and "Upper Deck," which is family friendly full service restaurant (opens at 4 PM daily). The Dock Store at the marina offers Yeti products, sunglasses, flip flops, drinks, ice cream, souvenirs, jewelry, clothing, and more. This is such a convenience for last minute things you forgot prior to a boating excursion. I've always enjoyed visiting Orange Beach Marina! In 2008 its complete rebuild was finished post Hurricane Ivan, and it really is a lovely, clean, fun marina!

The Fun Boats Dolphin Cruise was a highlight of our spring break trip! Check in was a breeze. We…read moresaw lots of dolphins from afar and up close. A couple dolphins decided to cruise alongside us for quite a bit of time. The marine sea creatures were so much fun. Loved being able to touch and learn about these beautiful creatures. There were not enough passengers to fill two boats, so we didn't do a water fight. Instead, the kids got to shoot the water off of the boat and still had a blast. This dolphin cruise was so much fun. Staff were so friendly and kind. Two hours was the perfect amount of time as well. Be sure to tip staff. We used the QR code to tip via Venmo. This cruise was specifically great because it was alcohol free. Our family enjoyed that a lot.

Captain Randy was a fantastic skipper who made the cruise very enjoyable and comfortable for all. Unlike some other sailing companies, we ACTUALLY sailed in the Gulf (engine off) and enjoyed the breeze and the views. As a sailor on Lake Michigan, Captain Randy let me take the helm of the 35-foot Beneteau for much of the sail. (THANKS, Captain!) He has tons of local knowledge and provided great information to our group. The boat was super clean - the topsides dazzling white and the woodwork varnish below deck looked wet it was so fresh looking. My only regret is that we did not book a longer cruise. Tom H.

Took their 8am deap-sea fishing trip. It's a big, clean, well maintained, well crewed boat…read more There were a LOT of people - probably 55 or 60. It was a little crowded if you were fishing on the sides of the boat. The captain did his best to put us on fish, and moved a number of times. All in all, it was fun and we each caught some fish. The mates were really good - they took your fish off, cut up bait, helped with tangled rods, cleaned your fish. If you can afford to charter a captain and boat, that would definitely be more fun. And I cannot imagine taking the 3pm fishing trip if it's July or August - it would be hotter than hell. But for the cost, this was fun. Definitely a well-managed operation.

Everything from the safety briefing to hopping from spot to spot exceeded my expectations. It was one of the coolest things we have ever done, and my kids loved it. The boat was clean and comfortable, and Troy and Sam went above and beyond for the experience. Captain Troy took us to a series of spots that were just teeming with fish. The fish were hitting our baits within seconds, and we were landing beautiful fish almost too quickly for Sam to get them off the lines. I personally caught the biggest fish of my life, and our group hit our limit on Red Snapper with time to spare. If you are looking for a fishing charter out of Orange Beach, I can't imagine a better option that Distraction Charters.

Very adept at what he does. He's a very professional, personable young man!! We asked if he could keep us out the full-day and it wasn't an issue.
