About Mobile

From a relaxing day on the links to an exhilarating night at the races, Mobile has something for every sports fan.

Hit a hole in one while taking in the gorgeous scenery at one of our numerous golf courses, or channel your inner Andy Roddick, perfecting your serve at one of the world's largest public tennis facilities, the Mobile Tennis Center. For those who'd rather observe than play, Mobile has its own minor league baseball team, the Mobile BayBears. College sports enthusiasts can also find something to watch on the campuses of the University of South Alabama, Spring Hill College and the University of Mobile. Plus each January, the Mobile area plays host to some of the best athletes in college football as they compete in two bowl games, the Reeses Senior Bowl and the Mobile Alabama Bowl.

Things to do in Mobile

Being one of the oldest cities on the Gulf Coast, Mobile has always been able to offer visitors exciting, entertaining, and educational experiences year-round. Translated: There are tons of fun things to do anytime you visit our historic, coastal town!

You'll find museums and attractions showcasing everything from fine art to Mardi Gras, history to science, the military to mums. How about dancing in the street with thousands of new friends at one of the region's many outdoor music festivals, catching Moon Pies thrown from fire-breathing dragon floats during Mardi Gras, or taking in millions of glittering holiday lights on a 65-acre historic garden estate?

If water is more you're thing, you'll discover water-based adventures that bring you eye-to-eye with giant gators or have you shaking ‘fins' with gentle stingrays. Maybe you'll find yourself paddling toward an ancient Indian mound accessible only by water or sipping wine on a sunset cruise on Mobile Bay - after all, being on the water is simply a part of life around here.
