Review:
Fairhope, Alabama is a four-hour drive south from Birmingham on the Gulf of Mexico just a few minutes from Orange Beach and Gulf Shores. The resort community was founded in 1908 with just 500 people and featured a beachfront park, a pier more than a quarter mile long, small bluff-top cottages for rent. Visitors can also stay in boutique hotels and visit the Fairhope Museum of History when they aren’t spending time together on one of the sunny beaches. When conditions are just right in Fairhope, a Jubilee Phenomenon occurs which delights fisherman who can catch buckets full of crab in just a few hours.
