How is it almost Spring Break?!
Not only is Mobile your perfect destination to get away, but we also did all the planning for you! Whether you’re looking for memorable experiences, a culinary adventure or just a relaxing place to chill, your itinerary awaits.
More than Museums
Mobile is more than 320 years old, so you know we have a story to tell. If your goal is entertaining the kids (while sneaking in some history lessons) or you are one for learning new information about the past, there are plenty of places to explore centuries of impactful history.
Looking for a sensory experience? Check out the ¡CUBA! exhibit, the newly renovated, state-of-the-art Digital Dome Theater and other hands-on learning adventures at the Exploreum Science Center.
The Alabama Aquarium at the Dauphin Island Sea Lab is an educational public aquarium with a 10,000 square foot Exhibit Hall, 7,000 gallon sting ray touch pool, the Living Marsh Boardwalk and over 30 aquariums with more than 100 species on display.
There’s more to find when you visit Dauphin Island, including ferry rides and historic Fort Gaines.
Flavor City
The comforting, the eclectic … from freshly caught to farm-to-table, you’re sure to find your flavor in Mobile.
If you’re a fan of Food Network’s “Diners, Drive-ins and Dives” with Guy Fieri, you can follow his food journey during his visit to Mobile in the summer of 2023. Local chefs from The Noble South and Roosters had Fieri promising a return to the Port City soon.
There’s more to sample than you can possibly try in a few days, but it doesn’t hurt to try, right?
Take All the Tours
Mobile has experience givers and storytellers eager to share their favorite parts of the area. From African American heritage, historic homes tours, graveyard tours, an award-winning customized food tour and everything in between, it's a great way to “accessorize” your visit to Mobile and learn about the city!
Go Outside!
Visit Bellingrath Gardens & Home or Mobile Botanical Gardens to see all that blooms.
If cruising (or flying) down the water is more your speed, there are dinner cruises, kayaks, canoes, airboats and fishing tours.
Grab some friends and maybe make a friendly wager on your golf game at any of Mobile’s stellar golf courses.
There are many squares and parks scattered throughout the city, lined with benches, water features, statues and amazing landscaping.
Stroll Around Downtown

Within a few blocks, you’ll discover many art galleries full of works by a variety of local artists. Take home a piece of Mobile from Bienville Souvenirs or pick up a new outfit or a funky gift from local start-up incubator, Urban Emporium. Enjoy a pre-dinner cocktail at one of our many bars or pubs along Dauphin Street.
