Top Rated Parks to Visit in Mobile

"If you enjoy a good nature and historical tour via water, taking a two-hour tour of Mobile Bay. Ours was in a pontoon boat – a must-do. Our guide was highly knowledgeable and made me feel at ease, even though the water was pretty rough due to high winds."

"Experience a paved walking path, interesting sculptures, and outdoor fountains alongside Mobile River at the Cooper Riverside Park. It’s a nice waterfront area for a short stroll to see the boats coming in and out of the harbor."

"How could a beautiful green park right in the heart of downtown and next to the water not be a dream come true for a photoshoot?. Cooper Riverside Park has stunning locations for that special moment to be captured forever."

"Best Bite:Butch burger dressed with bacon, cheese, lettuce, onion, tomato, pickles, mayo and mustardEstablished by Roy Seewer in 1993, Butch Cassidy’s reasonable prices, low-key atmosphere and burger options aplenty keep locals coming back. Daily specials, along with sandwiches, seafood, nachos, wings, and low-carb options round out the menu."

"Sometimes I get the special of the day, which is always a large portion. Other times I get the tuna salad from the grab and go cooler."

"The venerable Sucré, a New Orleans confectioner specializing in French macarons, has made their much-lauded king cakes and macarons available to Mobile. Cream and Sugar, the Oakleigh cafe/coffee shop/bakery, receives deliveries of king cakes and macarons from Sucré on Tuesdays and Fridays. The Sucré king cake is for the king cake purists."
