Spend the Day in Mobile, AL - Bellator Real Estate & Development

From its beginnings in 1702 as the first capital of French Louisiana, Mobile has forged a rich and impressive history. It is the oldest city in Alabama with a booking port facility. Get to know this fascinating city by visiting these great attractions around Mobile, recommended by our real estate agents.

  • USS Alabama Battleship Memorial Park
    2703 Battleship Pkwy., Mobile, AL 36602

    The USS Alabama Battleship Memorial Park is a moving tribute to Alabamians who served our country in the armed forces. Close to these Downtown Mobile homes for sale, the park provides visitors with an in-depth look at the role all branches have played in keeping America safe. Exhibits include the namesake battleship along with USS Drum, a WWII-era submarine, and various tanks, planes, and memorials. Park hours are 8 A.M. - 5 P.M. daily. Admission is $18 for adults and $6 for ages 6-11.

  • Mobile Carnival Museum
    355 Government St., Mobile, AL 36602

    Enjoy the spirit of Mardi Gras any time of year with a visit to the Mobile Carnival Museum. This colorful museum celebrates Mobile as the home of the first Mardi Gras celebrations. Take a stroll through more than 300 years of history as you view costumes, floats, and other artifacts of past carnivals. Be sure to snap a selfie with past decades' parade royalty. The museum is open from 9 A.M. - 4 P.M. on Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday. Admission is $8 for adults and $3 for ages 12 and under.

  • Mobile Flea Market
    401 Schillinger Rd. N., Mobile, AL 36608

    A trip to the Mobile Flea Market is a perfect way to find some unique bargains and take in local flavor after looking at West Mobile homes for sale. As the largest flea market on the Gulf Coast, more than 800 booths are filled with thousands of funky finds and hidden treasures. On any given day, you can find items ranging from art supplies and antiques to tools and trading cards. Grab a bite to eat at one of six on-site concession stands. Hours are 9 A.M. - 5 P.M. Saturday and Sunday, and admission is only $1 for ages 12 and up.

  • Slurp Society Ramen Shop
    69 St. Michael St., Mobile, AL 36602
    Slurp Society Ramen Shop is taking noodles to a whole new level! This new dining destination in downtown Mobile is the perfect place to stop for lunch during your tour of the city. Choose from "Noods" like the Slurp O.G. with pulled pork, pickled onions, and society egg, or opt for the Battleship Curry with chicken kaarage, pickled onions, and chili sesame oil. We like to start off our meal with "Munchies," such as Spicy Cukes with spicy peanut sauce, or the Okonomiyaki Style Brussels with sweet chili honey. Slurp Society is open for lunch from 10:30 A.M. to 2:30 P.M. Tuesday through Saturday and for dinner from 5 to 9 P.M. Friday and Saturday.

  • Mobile Botanical Gardens
    5151 Museum Dr., Mobile, AL 36608

    Horticulture has always been deep in Mobile's identity, with no better example than Mobile Botanical Gardens. The 100-acre grounds, close to these Springhill homes for sale, were once part of a longleaf pine forest, preserved within a 35-acre area. Other stunning displays include a rhododendron and azalea collection, camellia and pollinator gardens, and the Woodland Gardens and Trails. The facility also hosts several classes and events, such as luncheons, book clubs, art classes, and yoga sessions. Hours are 9 A.M. - 4 P.M. Wednesday and Friday, 9 A.M. - 5 P.M.
