Gulf State Park

Headquarters
Located on the Alabama gulf coast, white sun-kissed beaches, a
surging surf, seagulls and seashells are here to greet you at Gulf
State Park. Consisting of 6,150 acres with 2 miles of sugar white
sand beaches, Gulf State Park has modern and primitive camping,
cottages, trails and fishing. What more could you ask for? How
about tennis, group pavilions, nature programs and picnic areas?
Yes, they have that too! You will also find an 18-hole championship
golf course and Lake Shelby, a 900 acre lake with an abundance of
freshwater fishing, skiing and swimming. Finally, they have some of
the finest southern hospitality around. Step inside, say hi, and
let them know how much we appreciate them letting us geocache in
the park!
Gulf State Park is also the site of the annual Alabama Open
Invitational, Alabama’s largest geocaching event. This year, the
event (GC12MQJ) will be held on the weekend of September 28-30,
2007. We hope to see you there!
