North Sauty Refuge

5,000-acre natural landscape

North Sauty Refuge spans 5,000 acres of wetlands and woodlands, offering opportunities for birdwatching, hunting, and nature exploration. Upland small-game hunting is permitted for species like squirrel, rabbit, and raccoon during Alabama’s regulated seasons, but deer and waterfowl hunting are prohibited. The refuge is also a prime spot for viewing waterfowl, shorebirds, and seasonal bat emergences.

 

 

Hunters must carry a valid state license, WMA permit, and a signed refuge-specific permit. Firearms and archery equipment must meet state regulations, and hunting is allowed only during daylight hours.

“From the one-and-only Unclaimed Baggage Center to waterfront dining, you’ll find more than you expected. What’s more, all of this comes at a very reasonable price point, so you can afford to keep coming back and finding new adventures.”
