YOLO Orange Beach



What a beautiful weekend! This weekend we took a short trip to Orange Beach to see the Rascal Flatts & Darius Rucker concert, and we couldn't have asked for better weather this time of year. We always paddle here in Destin, but decided to load the YOLO Board's for our short trip. You see...trailering a boat everywhere can sometimes be too much, but when you have a YOLO....you can take that baby anywhere!

We checked in late Friday afternoon, but as soon as we woke up Saturday morning we hit the water. We stayed at Phoenix on the Bay, through Brett & Robinson, and it was perfect. They had a boat launch and plenty of boat slips just in case you wanted to bring your boat, but having the YOLO's made it that much easier. I saw several fish on my journey and once I got to the small island across the way I saw an even larger fish. I'm pretty sure it was a Cobia, and that is some good eatin'.

On our way home Sunday we decided to travel down Pensacola Beach and come up through Navarre just in case we wanted to pull over and drop the boards for a quick paddle. We saw several pods of Dolphin that were having a great time. There must have been 12 or so, and they were flipping and doing all sorts of tricks. I was ready to get out there with them, but they were traveling pretty fast as I guess they were on a mission of some sort.

So get your board and hit the water...I promise there's nothing like it.

Paddle On!
