Established in 1986 in Fairhope, AL, the Weeks Bay National Estuarine
Research Reserve encompasses 6,525 acres of wetlands and waterbottoms
in Weeks Bay, Fish River, Magnolia River and a small portion of Mobile
Bay. These protected areas provide rich and diverse habitats for a
variety of fish, crustaceans and shellfish, as well as many unique and
rare plants. Weeks Bay is especially important to the commercial
fishing industry in South Alabama. The shrimp, bay anchovy, blue crab
and multitudes of other fish, crustaceans and shellfish found in the
area support a robust $450 million a year industry. Map Us | Visit Our Website
