Weeks Bay National Estuarine Reserve:

Located between Foley and Fairhope on US 98 is Weeks Bay which is a bird lover's paradise. There are trails and boardwalks throughout the park as well as picnic areas. There is also an educational facility and the park welcomes group tours. The nature trail is about 2 miles long winding through the reserve and ending at a beautiful boardwalk overlooking the bay. Located behind the Interpretive Center is a 3,000 ft long wooden boardwalk that leads you through the bottomland hardwood swamp, as well as another 2,000 ft wooden boardwalk that leads through the pitcher plant bog. The park itself is located on the west side of the bridge over the bay.
