Things to Do

Daphne and Fairhope are situated along the Eastern Shore of Mobile Bay. They are both full of beauty and rich in history. We love exploring and enjoying everything they have to offer. The Eastern Shore is known for its beautiful sunsets so heading down to the bay, along with what seems like half the town, is one of our favorite things to do. The shopping in Fairhope's historical downtown is also one of our favorite pastimes. We've listed some of our favorite places to catch a sunset and plenty of places to eat.
