LIFE IN "A CITY OF SPIRIT"

Spanish Fort, “A City of Spirit”, is a vibrant, progressive and friendly community in which to live and raise a family and to establish and grow a business.  Located on the Eastern Shore of Mobile Bay, you won't have to go far to find countless opportunities for taking in the beauty of our area while fishing, boating, hunting, enjoying the parks and recreational facilities, catching a spectacular sunset on the bay, dining out on fresh local seafood, or enjoying an extraordinary shopping experience.

Shopping and Dining

The shopping and Dining in Spanish Fort reflects the city itself. While there are large retail stores and national dining chains and two malls there are also an abundance of small quaint shops that reflect the small town roots of the area. Spanish Fort is a popular location for a day of shopping, dining, movies and other entertainment options!

If waterfront views, live entertainment and delicious food are what you are looking for than a stop on the causeway is in order. Tempting menus include the freshest seafood and many other delicious options to suit even the most discriminating diner.  Overlooking Mobile Bay and the surrounding wetlands, each location offers a fun and unique view of local wildlife, birds, alligators and a breathtaking sunsets.
