Elevator World

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.

Art aficionados will most definitely not want to miss the opportunity to take in the incredible works and exhibits that are on display at the Mobile Museum of Art. The art that is presented here spans several historical periods, the most notable of which are the ones culled from the 18th century. Also, the rotating exhibits are always highly compelling as they not only offer various artists the chance to have their work seen in a highly-regarded spotlight, but they also help broaden the museum's already far-reaching artistic scope.

The love between you and your sweetheart is a feeling, but it's also a chemical reaction that gives you that indescribable feeling.

This facility features various exhibits that will appeal to both kids and adults. A fun, interactive and inviting environment make learning feel more like an adventure!

Breathing in the salt air and feeling your toes in the sand as the sun warms your face are just part of the sensory experiences you'll enjoy when you visit Gulf Shores.

Gulf Shores Beach stretches out to include several access points along Highway 182 to include 13th, 6th, 5th, 4th, and 2nd Streets. An additional point of interest is Lagoon Park which is located at Lee Callaway Bridge that offers calm, shallow waters as well as restroom facilities and plenty of parking.
