Toughluck Says: Find a beach - we used one of the public access parking areas - and spend an hour or more just sitting in the sand. Bring sand chairs, umbrellas, and water. If you're at a hotel, these can be rented, if you don't want to carry them.
Basaic Says: Just down the road from Gulf Shores is historic Fort Morgan. Fort Morgan was established in 1834 at the mouth of Mobile Bay. The fort was named for Revolutionary War hero Daniel Morgan. Many regard Fort Morgan as one of the "finest examples of military architecture in the...

Mobile -Nice City with a lot to see
BruceDunning Says: This is on Dauphin Island and easy to get to. The trip is worth it just to get the view from the fort. It was still in use in WW II with gun batteries ready to take action in case of attack in the South.The Alabama battleship was one of the most impressive I have ever been...
BruceDunning Says: An impressive replica fort built originally in the 18th century by the French. It opened in 1976 and has a museum underground displaying the attire during that era for military uniforms and weapons and other items for the period. It is just right in the downtown area on 11...

Lambert's Cafe III: Home of the Throwed Rolls
cryofthecelt Says: Lambert's Cafe specializes in down-home cookin'. Employees travel around the restaraunt with buckets of "fixin's" - good ol' southern stuff like macaroni 'n' tomatoes and sorghum 'n' molasses. That sorghum 'n' molasses is good to spread over your hot roll, which will be...

contaminated water and beaches
liverpool-girl Says: If you want to swim you need to know that 6000.00 gallons of raw sewage were released into Mobile bay today 3/15/12 and they continue to find oil on the beaches. Maybe you should consider Florida east coast.
CarolWeaver Says: Sometimes, getting ready for a full day of fun in the sun on the Alabama Gulf Coast with the wholefamily reminds me of trying to plan a military invasion. But a little bit of forethought can make “storming the beach” a whole lot simpler.Here are a few tips I've learned for...

If you are looking for pretty white sand along the gulf coast, Gulf Shores is as far west as you can go. The beaches are pretty decent, more than you would expect. There are, of course, touristy...
The beach area stretches for miles and all is really good sand beach and depth is wide. The ocean current is not strong in this area, so swimming is very attractive.
What a wonderful way to start the day, with the breathtaking sunrise, the cool salt air in the morning and the crashing of the surf. I never tire of this and know I will be back for more. Try to get a...
