Canal Park Boat Launch Under Review | Birmingham News

Description

Gulf Shores is eyeing the closure of its aging Canal Park boat launch—operated since 1999—to prioritize safety and community needs. With two modern, safer alternatives now available on Cotton Creek Drive and Baldwin County Road 6, officials argue the old site’s dangerous tides, heavy traffic, and outdated design make it obsolete. The city plans to repurpose the waterfront for much-needed parking, pedestrian-friendly spaces, and revitalizing the Waterway Village district—with final approval pending from the Alabama DOT and a City Council vote soon.
