Beautiful and historic Dauphin Island is located four miles out
in the Gulf of Mexico of the mouth of Mobile Bay. Dauphin Island has a romantic and colorful history that dates
back to the early days of colonial America. Settled by a French military expedition in 1699, it has since been
under the Spanish, English, Confederate, and United States flags. A semi-tropical leisurely paradise, with all
the modern conveniences, luxurious motels, apartments, and clubs, its unsurpassed snow-white beaches are caressed
by the blue waters of the Gulf of Mexico and Mississippi Sound.
