Ono Island Orange Beach Alabama

As a homeowner and real estate advisor specializing in luxury coastal properties, one of the questions I’m asked often is, “Where exactly is Ono Island?” If you’ve been dreaming of a private waterfront lifestyle or are exploring the best-kept secrets of the Gulf Coast, Ono Island is a name you’ll want to know.

Where Is Ono Island Located?

Ono Island is a private, gated residential island located in Orange Beach, Alabama, in southern Baldwin County. It sits at the southernmost tip of Alabama, just west of Perdido Key, Florida, and directly across Bayou St. John from the mainland of Orange Beach. What makes Ono Island so unique is that although it’s physically nestled next to Florida, it’s proudly part of Alabama and accessed via a private bridge from Perdido Beach Boulevard..

If you’re driving in from Pensacola International Airport, you’ll be at the front gate of Ono Island in about 45 minutes. The island is also within a short distance of Gulf Shores, Perdido Key, and all the attractions of Alabama’s coastal corridor.


Why People Love Living on Ono Island

Ono Island offers a rare combination of privacy, boating lifestyle, and natural beauty. Here are a few reasons it continues to attract discerning buyers:

  • Private Gated Access: Security and exclusivity with a 24/7 staffed entrance.

  • Waterfront Living: Many homes are directly on Bayou St. John, Old River, or interior canals. Some even include private beaches and deep-water access for large vessels.

  • Boating Access: Enjoy quick access to the Intracoastal Waterway, Perdido Pass, and the open Gulf of Mexico. Whether you prefer bay boating, offshore fishing, or cruising at sunset, it’s all right here.

  • Natural Setting: The island is beautifully preserved with lush vegetation, maritime forest, and minimal commercial development.

  • Proximity to Amenities: While it feels like a secluded retreat, you’re just minutes from The Wharf, Gulf State Park, and premier dining in Orange Beach and Perdido Key.
