The holiday weekend is here, and if you're headed to the Gulf Coast you need to know that Coronavirus restrictions are still in place for visitors and locals alike.

The City of Gulf Shores is warning tourists that the state's "Safer at Home" order is being strictly enforced, and a zero-tolerance policy will be in place for those found in violation of the order.

Social distancing will be strictly enforced on the City of Gulf Shores' beaches, and all restaurants will comply with the Alabama Department of Public Health's guidelines for preventing the spread of COVID-19.
