Dauphin Island

Dauphin Island

No matter the season, guests can relish in the majesty and art of the Bellingrath Gardens and Home — a 65-acre flora utopia of camellias, azaleas, roses, or chrysanthemums, depending upon the time of year. Further south sits Dauphin Island, an ecological gem and bird sanctuary along Mobile Bay where you can tour historic Fort Gaines or the Estuarium at the Dauphin Island Sea Lab.  Catch a ferry to the island from Gulf Shores’ Fort Morgan, where one leaves every 90 minutes.
