Historic Blakeley State Park, located in Spanish Fort, Alabama, preserves a Civil War-era battlefield and offers a wide range of outdoor experiences centered on the Mobile‑Tensaw Delta. The park provides guided river cruises—including sunset, wildlife, and specialty cruises—educational excursions to nearby historic and archaeological sites, and a calendar of family programs such as children’s survival classes and guided ghost hunts.
Visitors can choose from multiple camping options: individual and family tent sites at Harper Tent Campground, improved tent campgrounds at Bartram and Delta, small and standard RV sites at Apalachee RV Campground, horse trailer camping, and a selection of cabins with specific pet policies (Kennedy and Peters cabins allow two pets; Sibley and Hall cabins do not permit pets).
Historic Blakeley State Park operates a range of specialty experiences including cruises to the site of the Clotilda wreck, excursions to the Bottle Creek Indian Mound Complex, presentations and cruises featuring historian John S. Sledge, and seasonal reenactments such as the Battle at the Village. On‑site amenities include picnic areas, restrooms and showers near camping loops, and fire rings at many campsites.
The park is a destination for wildlife viewing in “America’s Amazon,” offering opportunities to spot birds, alligators, and native flora while learning local history and river ecology through guided tours and educational programming.
