TOP 5 ORANGE BEACH HOMES THAT FIT A 60’ SPORTFISHING YACHT

By Meredith Folger Amon — Licensed in Alabama and Florida

Orange Beach Alabama Homes and Ono Island Sportsfishing Yachts

On the Gulf Coast, life is measured in tides and traditions. For those who own a 60’ sportfishing yacht, the right home isn’t simply about a dock—it’s about creating a seamless life where mornings begin with a run through Perdido Pass and evenings close with a quiet drink overlooking the water. In Orange Beach and on Ono Island, certain properties are built to carry this rhythm, pairing luxury living with true deepwater access.

Here are five types of properties that pair beautifully with a yacht of this size.


1. Ono Island Deepwater Estates on Old River

Ono Island  — https://www.searchthegulf.com/ono-island/

Ono’s southern edge along Old River offers some of the best deepwater access on the coast. Many estates here are designed with expansive docks and boat houses, built to comfortably accommodate larger vessels. From Old River, it’s a short, direct run to Perdido Pass and the Gulf beyond. These homes are more than addresses—they’re a statement of private coastal living at its finest.

Why it works: Deepwater dockage on Old River, unmatched privacy, and Gulf access in minutes.


2. Ono Island Properties on Bayou St. John

Ono Island https://www.searchthegulf.com/ono-island/

On the northern side of Ono Island, Bayou St. John stretches wide and scenic. Homes here often feature sweeping views across the bayou, with private docks and boathouses designed for larger vessels. It’s a quieter pace of life, yet still tied to the Gulf through easy access and navigable waters.

Why it works: Wide water views and deepwater docks, perfect for balancing peace and sportfishing adventure.


3. Terry Cove Waterfront Homes

Orange Beachhttps://www.searchthegulf.com/orange-beach/

Terry Cove remains one of Orange Beach’s most cherished boating enclaves. Its calm waters are ideal for docking larger yachts, and homes here often include custom docks and lifts. With direct passage through Perdido Pass, you’ll find yourself offshore in minutes, yet safely tucked away when the weather turns.

Why it works: A protected cove with Gulf access—ideal for larger sportfishing yachts.


4. Burkhart Estates

Burkhart Estates is a waterfront enclave that offers a blend of privacy and practicality. Unlike many communities with slips, most properties here are built with private docks and boathouses, giving yacht owners both protection and convenience. With direct access to the Intracoastal Waterway and a short run out to the Gulf, it’s a hidden gem for those who want their sportfishing yacht close at hand.

Why it works: Private docks and boathouses tailored for larger vessels in an exclusive community.


5. Marina Road Properties Near Orange Beach Marina

Orange Beachhttps://www.searchthegulf.com/orange-beach/

Marina Road is one of Orange Beach’s best-kept secrets. Located near Orange Beach Marina and the Mobile Big Game Fishing Club—the South’s premier private fishing club and host to world-class tournaments—homes along Marina Road offer unmatched access to offshore culture. With deepwater frontage and proximity to professional marina amenities, it’s a natural fit for serious yacht owners who want to live at the heart of Orange Beach’s sportfishing tradition.

Why it works: A hidden gem offering deepwater docks and proximity to the best tournaments and private fishing club on the coast.


Finding the Right Fit

A yacht of this size deserves more than storage—it deserves a home that makes sense of the lifestyle. Whether it’s the privacy of Ono Island, the calm waters of Terry Cove, or the tournament energy of Marina Road, Orange Beach offers properties where boat and home come together seamlessly.

I take pride in helping buyers discover these pairings, ensuring that your yacht, your home, and your Southern coastal life are aligned in every way.
