Overflow Parking Options Along Alabama’s Beaches
By Meredith Amon | Gulf Coast Real Estate Advisor – Licensed in Alabama & Florida
Parking along Alabama’s stunning Gulf Coast can be tricky, especially during peak season when visitors bring more cars, golf carts, and even trailered boats than many vacation properties can accommodate. I often help second-home buyers and rental property owners plan for overflow parking—and now, I’ve compiled this go-to list of secure and reliable options for parking extra vehicles near Orange Beach and Gulf Shores.

A Local’s Note
As someone who lives and works on the Gulf Coast year-round, I always advise against overnight parking at public beach access points or retail centers. Your vehicle could be towed—and with how quickly storage fills up during summer and major events, it’s best to plan ahead.
If you need more help with boat-friendly homes, RV access lots, or investment properties with ample parking, I’d love to assist. GlenLakes, Bear Point, Terry Cove, and Ono Island all offer smart options with room to store your lifestyle.
