Fairhope, and its surrounding area, is one of those rare places that remain deeply itself despite the world changing around it. From antiques to bookstores, fashionable apparel to gifts, and art galleries filled with amazing local and national talent, Fairhope is a treat for anyone who likes to stroll, browse, shop, or wander. Named one of the very best small towns in the South by Southern Living magazine, the town sparkles with inviting, flower-filled commercial avenues, pedestrian-friendly streets, and the vibrant independent culture alive in each art gallery, shop, and restaurant. Add in parks and museums, festivals, and hiking trails, and the lure of locals in this special part of the world is abundantly apparent.
