1. Burris Farm Market

This is a nice little farm stand. The real treat is the ice cream shop. They sell a few baked goods, like bread and muffins, but their specialty is incredibly sweet cobblers. Even a small serving will fill you up. And, of course, they'll gladly add a scoop of ice cream to cut the sweetness. They have several flavors, including pecan cobbler, which was a first for me. They also have a fairly good selection of ice creams. Peach is my personal favorite. The staff is always polite and friendly.
2. Alligator Alley

Reviewed By ushma - Atlanta, Georgia
We drove about 2 hours out of our way on our spring break road trip to come here. There are about 205 alligators on the property. The feeding was well organized, everyone had good seats. But during his presentation one of the staff members repeatedly made misogynist comments about women such as ladies always like alligator shoes and girls like pink. At one point he likened one of the alligators to Hillary Clinton. It was extremely offensive and divisive. He kept calling female alligators “ladies” instead of female alligators and he couldn’t even say the scientific word “mating”— he called it “alligator wrestling.” You would think someone working at a place like this would have a better handle on science.
The place is well kept and clean and the alligators appear healthy and happy. We got to hold a baby alligator too. They take in nuisance alligators that would otherwise have been euthanized.

This church building is absolutely stunning. The architecture is beautiful & the interior murals & ornate decorations are gorgeous. I live about 10 miles away & generally take visiting family and friends to tour it. It is one of those places you could easily pass without paying it much attention, but it is worth the time to stop & see this one!

The main shopping area in this picturesque resort town.

Fairhope Avenue has something for everyone. Men's clothing, women's clothing, restaurants, art galleries, coffee shops, museums and plenty more. We were here for the annual art show held outside with about 200 artists. Great art to buy. Plenty of other shops off the side streets.

Great little park to watch the sunset with a really nice boardwalk trail and (fishing) pier. The place is let down only by the amount of garbage everywhere.

My daughter, 6, and I did the train robbery, horse ride, fed the goats, pigs, and chickens. Then, rode the covered Wagon, and the mini train. I felt like all of the characters and other workers went out of their way to make this a great experience. Definitely going back in October for the Halloween train ride.

We had an excellent experience. Brittany was very professional, friendly and courteous. Geoff was humorous and was quite versed in the flora and fauna. Best part, Geoff is a former brother paratrooper; "Airborne, All the Way". Be sure to greet Beudreaux, the 3 1/2 foot .alligator that hangs out at the dock. Looking forward to our next trip to Mobile. This is a definite "REPEAT"!

I've been diving for over 30 years and whenever I go on vacation I like to go on a dive. Over my entire diving career I've never had a dive shop use public reefs to dive on. There was a boat on the reef we we dove on, so we should have found some where else instead of ruining that boats trip by putting divers in the water beside them. High pressure obviously doesn't care about their customers experience by giving them quality diving nor do they care about being considerate to other boats while on the ocean.

This place is pure perfection. The kind of perfection that makes your whole being of body and mind flood in pure joy. The community of Fairhope and the groundkeepers here have made a small slice of heaven on earth. Gah, I can't say enough at how amazing this place is. You must experience this place in person. Take a walk, because you won't regret it.

This was such a lovely and relaxing experience. I thoroughly enjoyed being on the boat and learning about the wildlife. The captain gave us so much interesting information. We saw egrets, heron, pelicans, alligators and even dolphins! The owners of the company couldn’t have been nicer. I even got picked up from my hotel. I highly recommend this trip to anyone.
