The island, 15 miles long and one mile wide, offers a tranquil setting where residents and visitors can enjoy walking dogs on the beach or attending community events like the Easter sunrise service. With three public beaches, including West End Beach, where protected birds nest, and East End Beach near the historic Fort Gaines, there are plenty of things to do for nature enthusiasts. The Dauphin Island Audubon Bird Sanctuary provides walking trails through diverse landscapes, while the Dauphin Island Sea Lab offers insights into regional coastal habitats. Housing options range from raised cottages with Gulf views to more traditional homes in the wooded eastern area, though high insurance costs can be a consideration for potential buyers. The island hosts significant events like the Mardi Gras parades and the Alabama Deep Sea Fishing Rodeo, attracting thousands of visitors. Dining options include locally owned seafood restaurants like Pirate’s Bar & Grill, offering ocean views. Access to the island is via State Highway 193 and the Dauphin Island Bridge, with Mobile 35 miles away.
