Nice place to watch a movie and decent prices. Really liked the sound system and screen. We watched Avengers in 2D there. More

Been to the Wharf quite a few times. The shops have unique items some are reasonable and some are pricey. A good family place. They are currently building a scale weigh in place for the Marlin tournament coming up. From the looks of it it will be impressive to watch. More

Many of the store locations were empty. We were there just as stores were opening for the day but were not alot of variety available. We were disappointed by the location...save time and go to the outlet mall in Gulf Shores. More

This is a great place to visit while in the Gulf Shores/Orange Beach area. There are so many things to do at the Wharf, fun for all ages. I have been many times....always a shopping choice (several unique boutiques), our wedding reception was at the Live Bait there (too much of a great experience there to list):), attended a concert...

Lots of vacant storefronts here. I think the place did not go over as well as anticipated. Some nice restaurants and upscale gift/apparel/specialty stores but all in all, not worth going out of your way to visit. More

It was great for a girls day! Not too much there for a 10 year old boy though. We were also a little sad that we couldn't use the oasis without staying at their resort.... The shopping was really nice though! More

The Wharf was the perfect place for a non-beach day or just a great day of shopping. We went to the movies one day and another day just walked through the many shops for hours. A great selection of unique gift shoppes, both pricy and reasonable for tourists. I only wish I lived closer! A great find a wee bit... More
