The Neighborhood:
The 164-acre Audubon Bird Sanctuary is just a 15-minute walk from Knot Just Fishin on Forney Johnston. This sanctuary is a popular spot for birdwatchers, offering sightings of hundreds of species, including herons and pelicans. Visitors can take a walking tour through the palmetto palms to experience the island's lush native flora and fauna.

The Mobile Bay Ferry, located just around the corner from the bird sanctuary, is only a mile from Knot Just Fishin. Departing every hour and a half during the day, the ferry transports passengers to the historic Fort Morgan in Gulf Shores, Alabama. Nearby, there's a popular boat launch where anglers can launch their boats from sunrise to sundown.

Within two miles of the property, you'll find the Dauphin Island Estuarium, home to over 100 species of native Alabama marine life, and the historic Fort Gaines, offering guided tours of the 1821 fort that protected Mobile Bay during the Civil War. Dauphin Island boasts three public beaches: East End Public Beach, Bienville Beach, and West End Public Beach. The closest beach access to Knot Just Fishin is East End Beach, just over a mile away past Fort Gaines (a 6-minute drive).

With nearly a dozen restaurants and snack bars on the island, there's no shortage of local fare and fresh seafood. Menus feature the freshest seafood in the South, including snapper, grouper, oysters, and crab. During the summer, outdoor movies are shown on the West End of the island, and the Dauphin Island Fishing Rodeo in July attracts over 75,000 spectators for a weekend of fun and sports fishing.

Despite its small size (14 miles long and less than 2 miles wide in some areas), the island offers endless activities for vacationers, including an 18-hole golf course and various water activities. Boat, jet ski, stand-up paddleboard, and kayak rentals are available, along with sunset cruises and beach access to most of the 17 miles of powdery white sand beaches that wrap around the island. These offerings, along with deep-sea fishing and diving, make this Gulf Coast sanctuary a top destination for those looking to escape the crowds and enjoy the beauty and tranquility of the gulf.

We hope you enjoy your stay at Knot Just Fishin and have a wonderful time exploring the beautiful Alabama Gulf Coast!

Getting Around:
Thanks to its prime location on the East End, guests can quickly drive, bike, or walk to nearby attractions and restaurants. While public transportation isn't available, the island boasts miles of walking and biking trails, making it easy to explore.
