A vibrant Southern city that was founded more than 100 years ago, Fairhope has long been known for its lovely parks rich with moss-draped live oaks and its sweeping panoramic views of Mobile Bay. While taking in the shops, boutiques, cafes, gift shops and fabulous fresh seafood, take a few moments to visit the Fairhope Municipal Pier and Bayfront Park, Eastern Shore Art Center and Marietta Johnson Museum. Weeks Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve is one of 25 national reserves protecting estuarine water, marshes, shorelines and adjacent uplands for research and education. Nearby Point Clear is home to Lakewood Golf Club on the famed Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail.
