| Gulf
Shores, AL � March 2007 � The editors of Southern
Breeze magazine have chosen the �23 Best Things About the Gulf Coast,�
a hand-picked selection of the most interesting and eclectic adventures,
restaurants, experiences, arts & culture, specialty foods, activities,
destinations, and people that make the Gulf Coast truly unique. The list
will appear in the Spring 2007 issue of Southern Breeze magazine, coming
out on March 15.
�This
is one of our favorite features we do every year,� says Mark A. Newman,
Editor of Southern Breeze. �It gives us the chance to share with our readers
our favorite things about the Gulf Coast. Our goal is to let our readers
know about cool people, places, and things along the Gulf Coast that they�re
probably not aware of. This is truly a labor of love for all involved.�
Newman
says that the magazine was inspired to create this feature simply based
on the region that the magazine covers in-depth, issue after issue. �We
could do a Best of the Gulf Coast in EVERY issue because there�s so many
great things that we love about our region,� Newman says. �In every issue
of Southern Breeze we bring our readers the �good life on the Gulf Coast�
and these favorites from our staff epitomize that.�
