Easter Bunnies, Egg Hunts & More This Easter in Gulf Shores
Colorful Easter egg hunts and that big white bunny are always a part of Easter on the Gulf. And every year, local beach establishments put on celebrations (with their own special twist) that kids of all ages will enjoy. Keep the same family traditions or start some new ones.
The beachfront, family-friendly restaurant LuLu’s always has some sort of celebration going on, and Easter is no exception. Their annual Easter celebrations include an Easter Egg DASH with the Easter Bunny and plenty of kid-friendly activities. After the DASH and bunny pics, stay for brunch. LuLu’s has plenty of fresh seafood and cool beverages for everyone to enjoy year-round. Kids will love the game arcade and will wear themselves out scaling LuLu’s Rope Courses – giant climbing spectaculars – while the adults relax and enjoy some live music.
And there’s the nearby, world famous Flora-Bama’s Easter EGGTRAVAGANZA! Easter activities include face painting, an Easter egg hunt, and then the Easter Bunny skydives onto the beach. Yep. A skydiving bunny. Stay on after the fun festivities for an Easter brunch of oysters, burgers, and more. You won’t forget either of these Easter celebrations for years to come!
If you can’t make it to LuLu’s or the Flora-Bama this Easter in Gulf Shores, have your own egg hunt on the beach in front of your beachfront cottage. We have several beachfront and beach-adjacent cottages with bright white sand that will be the perfect backdrop for all those colorful eggs. Or, put a new twist on your usual Easter egg hunt and drop all those colorful eggs on the bottom of your rental’s pool. Lucky for you, many of our rentals have private pools that will be the perfect setting for your Easter festivities. Your kids can dive for eggs, then hunt for the chocolate bunnies and PEEPS you hid around the pool. Beach or pool front, your kids will love Easter in Gulf Shores.
Easter Services & More
Easter isn’t just a time for colorful eggs and chocolate bunnies; it is also a time to celebrate your faith, and you can attend any of the area’s local church services or try a beach version.
The nearby beachfront Flora-Bama’s Worship on the Water is a casual, coastal style service. Get there early, because this 11am Easter service is pretty popular. And of course, stay for the Easter fun and lunch after the service. Everyone should make a trip to the world-famous Flora-Bama at least once!
For a beautiful, coastal sunrise service, head to another popular Gulf Shores beach spot – The Hangout. After the Easter Sunrise Service, kids can meet the Easter Bunny, and make sure to stay for The Hangout’s Easter Buffet. If you miss the Easter celebration, don’t worry, there is always something going on at the Hangout. Live music, activities for the kids of all ages and fresh seafood are always on the menu.
For a more traditional Easter, make reservations for the Perdido Beach Resort Easter Sunday Brunch in nearby Orange Beach. Begin the day with a lovely sunrise service at the beach. After the sunrise service, kids can have their picture taken with the Easter Bunny then look for eggs in the Easter Egg Hunt. After the festivities, everyone can head to the Grand Ballroom or Voyagers for a delicious Easter Brunch with all your family’s Easter favorites. Or try something new for brunch, Voyagers is well known for its amazing panoramic views and innovative coastal cuisine.
Of course, you can stay in your Gulf Shores Easter rental and cook your own holiday meal. Kitchens in our rentals are fully equipped, and the ocean views make the work easier somehow. Stay in one of our rentals with an outdoor grill (or bring your own) and surprise the family with a perfectly grilled leg of lamb or glazed ham. Want to stay in your rental and enjoy a traditional holiday meal, but aren’t big on all that prep, cooking and cleanup, not to mention having to get dressed? Just order an Easter brunch ahead of time, pick it up and have a delightful Easter meal out on your rental’s private deck. Not sure where to order your Easter ham and all the fixings? No problem. Just give our staff a call for suggestions.
Take advantage of your beachfront location and take the family on a sunrise or sunset beach walk. It’s easy to recharge your faith while walking under the bright star-filled sky, or watching the sun come up over the beach and the world fill with light.
Our friendly staff can help with reservations for a Gulf Shores Easter brunch, or answer questions you may have on any of the local Easter celebrations. Just give us a call. We look forward to seeing you at Easter here in Gulf Shores!
