We were very impressed with this long pier that reaches out into Mobile Bay. It’s a nice walk out the end watching people attempting to get an exciting catch. There is a lot of construction being done on the pier, but it is still accessible for walking. Additionally, a very nice park and walkway along the shore is inviting for a stroll on the bluffs.

Great sunset views of Mobile Bay with the lights of Mobile in the backdrop. This is a hidden gemstone. Fishing (license required) and a tiny marina. Restaurant that seems to come and go and will hopefully reopen soon. No skateboarding or bikes but tons of people watching opportunities.

Visited the pier after dinner to watch the sunset behind Mobile. Fun to walk out onto the pier to see what the fishermen and kids are hauling in. There are plenty of benches near the parking area to watch the sunset. There’s a swimming beach there as well for day time fun. There’s a decent amount of parking but it can get crowded at sunset.

What happened to this place? The reviews are terribly wrong, at least judging by the time I went. The area is disgusting with so much dog poop that you can't even walk on any sidewalk or in the near grass. I don't mean a little dog poop I mean covered every square foot of it. The sign says no dogs on pier, there were an endless number of people walking dogs on the pier. I know that I will only go back after someone has taken responsibility and cleaned that nasty place up and forced others to obey the signs about the dogs pooping everywhere you walk. I witnessed 6 people let there dogs doing it no longer than I was there. Disgusting.

My wife & I were spending a rainy day driving the road along the bay and decided to stop here. Loved the rose garden in the parking area and enjoyed our pier walk! Pier was clean, had public restrooms, a restaurant & bar about mid-way and a beautiful view of Mobile Bay. We'll return when in this area again and hopefully catch a bonus - a pretty sunset from this location.

It was late afternoon, very windy and overcast when we walked down to the end of the pier. We were hoping to see a sunset but it wasn’t to be with the large gray clouds. We spoke to several people fishing but they reported not much biting except catfish. Lots of waves and winds made cast difficult.

Beautiful day for December, so took a walk halfway out on the Fairhope Pier. A few were fishing, some just walking and actually no one on the pier with a dog (which they are not suppose to be on it). The restrooms could do with cleanings. Also drink machines did not work. There is not a restaurant on it anymore. Also, it is a shame that the few boats there look as if they have been there years, I guess never leaving the docks. If they cleared and cleaned that up, they could probably rent all the slips. Just needs work there. But was nice to walk out and enjoy the view toward Mobile and the beautiful weather. Would like to go back and fish sometime.

We have been to the pier/park/beach often in the 10 months since we moved to Mobile. Its a real Jewel. Lots of free parking. Beautiful long beach bordered with pine trees. Plenty of benches and picnic tables. A lovely grassy park. Beautiful sunset views. And of course the pier. Almost 1/4 mile long with plenty of space for fishing, etc. There are several toilet facilities also.

We were in town house hunting from Madison, so this was our first visit to the pier. Parking was abundant on our Sunday mid-morning visit. Not sure what the cause was, but the restaurant was shut down and a "for lease" sign was posted, so no restaurant. It was a nice stroll out to the end with scattered fisher-folks fishing.

Beautiful Bluff area park and Pier. Lots of folks out for a stroll on a sunny mild day. The gulls were chatting, the loons were swimming by and a big brown Pelican greeted us from his napping place on the rail. There is ample parking and looks like the pier eating place will open soon with improvements. Only a couple folks were fishing. Fairhope is by far one of our favorite towns as we travel throughout the USA.
