The long and winding history of Mobile is everywhere. The city offers many chances to see and learn about what all came before, but the USS Alabama Historical Trail offers a chance to see it for yourself on your own long and winding journey. Stroll by antebellum homes, historical museums, and even old cemeteries. Plus, as you move along this recreation trail, you will be able to enjoy some of Mobile's natural amenities like live oak trees and blooming azaleas.
Visitors and nature lovers alike will marvel at the natural attractions that can be found in the Bon Secour National Wildlife Refuge in nearby Gulf Shores. This sprawling 6,000-plus-acre wildlife refuge preserves the coastline's native flora and fauna as well as coyotes, foxes, American alligators and countless species of migratory birds. And in addition to those visually stunning inhabitants, you will also encounter some creatures that are a little out of the ordinary. These include the Alabama beach mouse which is on the endangered species list. You can also get even closer to all this natural beauty by hitting one of the many trails that allow you to explore the park at your own pace.
Connect the history of your relationship with the history of Mobile when you both enjoy a special, romantic visit to the Museum of Mobile. This impressive facility preserves the history of the Mobile Bay Area and Southwestern Alabama through the creative use of exhibits, presentations, and artifacts. Over 300 years of Mobile's history is encapsulated quite dramatically in this engaging presentation of items. Don't forget to stop into the gift shop for a memento of your date here.
