Ideal location! Everything regarding description was accurate.
Ate at a different restaurant everyday. Go to visitor information first, lots of flyers and coupons. Had breakfast and one other meal in the condo everyday.
Steamers at San Roc Cay Marina had Red shrimp in season plus snow crab with all the fixin's.
Mikee's , 25 years in business makes everything from scratch. Located behind Reds Ribs in Orange Beach on highway 59. Freshest oyster around.
Lambert's Cafe "home of the throwed rolls" in Foley, Al a fun place
to go if you have about a hour to wait.
Alligator Alley in Summerdale,Al fun for whole family . Everyone can hold an alligator. Seasonal feeding times.
Dolphin cruise at Bear Point Marina includes discounted meal at Flippers Seafood & Oyster Bar. Seen several dolphins riding the waves between our boats. We took several pictures. Take water, snacks,and lots of sunscreen. Some people wore swimming suit with coverups.
Check out Fort Morgan, then ride the ferry to Dauphin Island $5.00 a person round trip. The Esturaium on Dauphin Island is an Aquarium and lab studying all of the waters ways. Easy walk from ferry.
Can also take Town Shuttle for $1.00 (.50 for seniors) get a ride all around the island and info about great lunch place. Don't miss the last ferry.
Went to the " Track " mainly for Go-karts at night. but check out their point system you may want to go in the daytime.
Went on beach everyday, since it was 99 plus all week headed to beach late afternoon til about 6:00 or 7:00 A couple nights til 8:00.
Had 3 year old and 8 year plus 6 adults and we all had a great time.
USS Alabama and USS Drum Battleship memorial park in Mobile, Al was our last stop on the way home to St. Louis, MO. very humbling.
