Mobile, AL: One of America's Most Romantic Getaways

If an area lacks a gorgeous dusk, what's the point of packing up the bags (and your partner) to head out there? This guru of romance certainly can't think of one.

Not only does Mobile have gorgeous sunsets, but whether you travel to Orange Beach, Dauphin Island or Florida's Pensacola Beach, you have some of the most dazzling, white sand beaches in existence. So not only is Mobile terrifically romantic, but it is completely surrounded by romance as well! How many places can say that?
