Make Your Fall & Winter Vacation Rentals Now!

Fort Morgan Peninsula is a 22 mile strip of lush semi-tropical beach paradise in the Gulf Shores, Alabama area along the coastline of the Gulf of Mexico. Part of the Fort Morgan Peninsula is in the Gulf Shores city limits and a great deal of it is designated as Bon Secour Wildlife Reserve. The historic Ft. Morgan is at the very end of the  state highway that runs the length of Fort Morgan Peninsula. 

This entire area is known for the outstanding opportunities for bird watching. There are some very nice walking and bicycling trails on Ft. Morgan Road. 

We added a map of the historic Fort Morgan. It is numbered and has descriptions for the major areas. Check it out here.
