The Track Family Recreation Center

When our guests want a break from the sand, or the weather isn’t cooperating, this is where we point them. The Track packs multiple go-kart circuits (including tracks built for younger and smaller drivers), a couple of mini-golf courses, bumper boats, and an arcade into one spot, open into the evening every day of the week.

It works well for a wide age range in one visit, younger kids have their own kart track and mini-golf, while teens and adults can take on the faster adult circuits. Because a good chunk of it is covered or arcade-based, it holds up fine even if a summer storm rolls through, which makes it a reliable backup plan for a Gulf Shores & Orange Beach afternoon downpour.

Go in the early evening in summer to avoid the worst of the heat on the karts and mini-golf greens. It’s a short drive from most of our Gulf Shores homes, and a solid way to fill a few hours as a family without needing to plan much beyond just showing up.
