A Perfect February Walk at Pine Beach – Discovering the Beauty of Fort Morgan


By Meredith Amon

Pine Beach Fort Morgan Alabama

Yesterday, I took my dog for a walk at Pine Beach, a hidden gem near the Bon Secour National Wildlife Refuge in Fort Morgan, just about 15 minutes from Gulf Shores (view Gulf Shores real estate here). It was one of those perfect February days on the Gulf Coast—clear skies, a gentle breeze, and a comfortable 73 degrees.

As we made our way down the trail, I couldn’t help but admire the live oak trees, their branches gracefully draped in Spanish moss, swaying softly with the wind. The landscape at Pine Beach is untouched and serene, offering a mix of maritime forests, dunes, and wetlands, all leading to one of the most peaceful stretches of beach along the coast.

The sound of the waves meeting the shore was calming, and my dog enjoyed every second, sniffing through the sand and watching seabirds along the water’s edge. This is what I love most about living on the Gulf Coast—these quiet moments where nature takes center stage, reminding me why so many people dream of owning a home in this incredible part of Alabama.

Whether you’re looking for a secluded waterfront retreat, a new construction home with modern amenities, or a Gulf-front condo, there’s something special about the real estate opportunities here. The Fort Morgan area offers a more laid-back, natural setting compared to the busier beaches of Orange Beach (view Orange Beach listings here), making it ideal for those who appreciate privacy and a connection to nature.

If you’ve ever thought about buying a home or investment property near Fort Morgan, Gulf Shores, or Orange Beach, I’d love to help you explore your options. The Gulf Coast has so much to offer, and finding the right property is about more than just real estate—it’s about finding a lifestyle that fits your vision.
