Dauphin Island Park & Beach Board


Area Parks.

Aloe Bay Landing Park

This small waterfront park is located in the industrial section of the Island. It is a great spot to watch shrimp and crab boats coming and going as well as work boats related to the offshore gas industry. Picnic tables and benches are provided.

  Bayou Heron Park

A quite, peaceful waterfront park popular with bird watchers and others. A small pier is provided as well as picnic tables and benches. It has a great view of the 3 2 mile bridge connecting Dauphin Island to the mainland.

Magnolia Park

This is a very small, pedestrian-access only road side park located between the ferry landing and Historic Fort Gaines. Originally designed to give walk-on visitors from the ferry a shaded spot to picnic and cool-off, it has also become very popular with those using the Island long Bike path. Besides picnic tables and benches, a porch swing hanging from a large magnolia limb is also provided.

East End Park

Three boat launches, 250-foot fishing pier and small dock. Across from Ft. Gaines.
