You can't be in Mobile and not be aware of its aquatic amenities. The Mobile River and its flow into the Gulf of Mexico makes fishing more than a sport here–it is a way of life. To get a better idea of how it feels to reel in the big one, let the professionals from Captain Mike Thierry's Deep Sea Fishing guide you through a memorable excursion. They provide the poles, tackle, and gear you'll need – and they bring along plenty of refreshments to make your angling experience the best catch of the day!
Getting some good exercise and having a great time don't always go together. Luckily, they do when you spend some quality leisure time enjoying recreation at Mobile's AMF Skyline Lanes. This state-of-the-art bowling facility also features a great arcade, snack bar and also special nights for various local leagues.
The kids will love the sights, sounds and attractions while mom and dad will enjoy the historical aspects of the USS Alabama Battleship Memorial Park. This great family attraction allows you the opportunity to tour two National Historic Landmarks. These are the USS Alabama and Submarine USS Drum as well as an incredible display of 20 rare and historic aircraft. In addition to touring the vessels, you can take a little bit of this history home with you when you buy an item from the gift shop.
Step onto the historic ground that sits under Fort Gaines. This storied point on Dauphin Island was built after the War of 1812 to better defend Alabama's port cities. Originally, construction on this fort began in 1821 but was beset with various problems that included the tides rushing into the work area that made progress on the structure highly challenging. Construction began again in earnest in 1850 after the location and building strategy was changed just in time to serve its purpose in the Civil War as it was a vital part of the Battle of Mobile Bay. When you visit this attraction, don't forget to stop in to the museum and gift shop.
