Alabama's Beaches is a fishing heaven. Our waterways are home to an abundance of prized species and plenty of fishing experiences, such as inshore and offshore charters, piers, 32 miles of beaches to cast off on, and one of the largest artificial reef systems in the world. No matter what you're hoping to catch, you'll have a blast fishing in our coastal waters.
You can hook something anytime on Alabama's Beaches. Spring brings various species like pompano, Spanish mackerel, and black drum near our shores, while summer is the ultimate season for an offshore trip to target red snapper, mahi, and grouper. Cast off for Jack Crevalle and flounder in fall, then brave the chill and head to the surf for redfish and whiting in winter.
Plan the perfect fishing trip from start to finish with these local businesses. If you plan to bring your own vessel, learn about the area's marinas and boat launches. No boat? No problem! You’ll find several boat rental companies in Gulf Shores, Orange Beach, and Fort Morgan. After you return from a day on the water, take your haul to one of Cook Your Catch restaurants, where you can have your fish prepared just how you like!
You’ll find everything you need for a successful excursion in our area.

If you plan to fish, whether by boat, pier, or on the shores, when in Gulf Shores, Orange Beach, and Fort Morgan, you will need a saltwater fishing license. You can easily purchase a license online from Outdoor Alabama. Those fishing on a charter boat trip do not need a license, as the boat’s license covers passengers.
