2. Bird watching
You may not be able to fly like a bird, but you can still enjoy watching they touch the sky and the ocean. A great place to see our feathered friends is Fort Morgan, located 22 miles west of Gulf Shores in Mobile Point. As a migrant trap for a variety of species, you’ll likely spot wading birds, terns, or even the occasional rarity.
