In Foley, Alabama, you have the privilege to be part of a town with a rich history and plenty of sights. From small-town charm to outdoor recreation opportunities, this coastal city has something for everyone.
Nestled between Mobile Bay and Bon Secour National Wildlife Refuge, Foley is home to one of the oldest settlements in Baldwin County. Founded by John B. Foley in 1905, it quickly became known as “the place where people come from all over the world.” While some still refer to its old nickname “The City on the Move” due to its growing population, many locals simply call it home.
Overlooking the bay lies Heritage Park, offering visitors panoramic views of Jones Creek Marina and historic Fort Morgan—one of only two Civil War battle sites that remain standing today. Take a stroll along Main Street lined with unique boutiques or visit The Museum of Old Hardware Tools & Kitchenware located inside an original hardware store built in 1910—a must-see attraction for any visitor! With so much culture and beauty right at your doorstep, it’s no wonder why Foley is such a great place to live and experience life.
