If you’ve never been to Dauphin Island before, you’re in for a treat. If you have been, you can probably close your eyes and imagine it as it is right now – because things don’t change much on this beautiful barrier island.

The island itself is accessible by a three-mile-long bridge from the mainland of Mobile County. The bridge, which soars to 83 feet above the water at one point, separates the Mississippi Sound on the west from Mobile Bay on the east, offering a bird’s-eye view of the length of the island.
