Add a bit of education to your trip by making connections with history and nature on the Scenic Byway. Just don’t tell the kiddos they may learn something. Although it’s more fun in person, you don’t have to wait until you get here to learn about the oceans and coastal living.   

The National Ocean Service of NOAA has a site for students to dive into tutorials on subjects ranging from estuaries and corals to ocean currents and tides. It offers a great opportunity for family discussions prior to your coastal trip.  

 Our website also has activities for family fun while you wait. The Just for Kicks page has trivia games and a coloring page for the younger set. For something a little more relaxing, close your eyes and listen to an audio tour with Sounds of the Byway. 

We look forward to seeing you on Alabama’s Coastal Connection!
