Why Camp Near Daphne?
Things to Do Near Daphne, Alabama
Daphne calls itself the "Jubilee City" for the same rare Mobile Bay phenomenon that draws crowds to Fairhope, and it adds its own attractions on top: Olde Towne Daphne's walkable downtown holds restaurants and shops, Bayfront Park offers sunset views over the bay from its own pier, and the Gator Boardwalk lets visitors spot alligators sunning near an overpass along the Eastern Shore Trail. History runs deep here too — Daphne's Old Methodist Church Museum dates to 1858, and the Malbis Greek Orthodox Church offers tours of its striking architecture — while Village Point Park Preserve gives hikers a quieter, more forested option than the town's waterfront attractions.

Plan a Trip to Daphne, Alabama
