Fairhope Municipal Pier is a good location for winter ducks, loons, gulls and terns. Check the pilings in all seasons for loafing gulls, terns and pelicans. A scan or walk along the beach can yield wading birds, peeps and other shorebirds. Designed for both strolling and fishing, the pier features benches, covered areas, restrooms, a marina and a restaurant. There is no cost to walk, but a saltwater license is required for fishing. The park is home to a lovely rose garden and fountain, plus picnic tables, pavilion, duck pond, tree trail, and a large sandy beach. Non-residents are charged park admission during the summer season. In addition to the waterfront park, numerous bluff top parks extend along the bay front.
