Why Perdido Key Will Change Your Life

Discover the hiddem gem along the Emerald Coast. 

Perdido Key is a small quaint stretch of sugar white sand along the Gulf. Located just outside Orange Beach, AL, Perdido Key has quickly become a favorite get-away, not only for our guests, but for our locals. Here's why Perdido Key will change your life..

 

 

 

Sugar White Sand Beaches and Emerald Water..

Of course the main attraction here in Perdido Key is the beach. Our powder white sand is unlike any other. Take morning or evening strolls along the coast, taking in the breathtaking sunsets and sunrises. The beaches in Perdido Key are amoung the cleanest here in Florida. Unlike our neighbors located along the Emerald coast, Perdido Key's beaches are serene, spacious, and the sand is so clean, it squeaks beneath your feet. 

 

Wildlife & Nature..

These are the real locals. Take a ride on a dolphin cruise and watch our funny friends hop in and out of the water, you can often sea them swimming through the water while you're on the beach! Get a glimpse of true magic during Sea Turtle nesting season, but make sure to leave on your footprints on the beach, so those little creatures can make a safe journey back to the ocean! Some 60 to 80 nights later, tiny hatchlings dig their way out and make a mad dash for the Gulf, orienting on the ambient light of the moon over the Gulf. Manatees are also a frequent sight in the bay! Osprey and Great Bald Eagles have also rebounded in recent years, and can be found circling and diving after fish in the Gulf, Pensacola Bay, Santa Rosa Sound and other protected waters. Squadrons of brown pelicans are a common sight, as are the spindly, graceful great blue herons, which wade the shallows for fish, crab and will even grab the occasional lizard. The little green heron can be found inshore, often resting on boat mooring lines to steal fish that stray too close to the surface.

  

Luxury Condos to Fit any Budget..

 More often than not, you find the perfect condo or vacation home for you beach get-away, but the owner or rental company wants an arm and a leg to rent it out for a few nights. Perdido Key has thousands of vacation homes and condos to fit anyone's budget. The Perdido Key Vacation Rentals are amoung the most gorgeous, spacious, and reasonably price along the Emerald Coast. Locations vary with condos and homes directly on the sand, to properties set a little farther back, for a more quiet get-away. There are no hotels in Perdido Key, so most of the rentals are going to private vacation homes, which come fully equipt with everyone you will need during your stay. Perdido Key also has resorts that rival the pricier resorts in other beach locations. Resorts like the Purple Parrot Resort come complete with gated guest access, amazing outdoor and indoor pools, hot tubs, and even an on-site seasonal bar and grill.
