The Magnolia River that flows through the town of Magnolia Springs is a classic coastal Alabama river. Tall live oaks on the shore, cypress trees at the water’s edge, and a slow current that takes a floater downstream to the confluence with Week’s Bay are what you'll find here.
Just pass the bridge on County Road 49 near the town of Magnolia Springs, swimmers and boaters will find relief from oppressive summertime heat. Known as “The Cold Hole” by locals, this area of spring water creates some very comfortable swimming and floating conditions which makes hot weather on the water much more pleasant.
After a float enjoy the quaint town of Magnolia Springs with a cold drink or locally sourced meal from Jesse's Restaurant and a serene walk under the majestic canopy of centuries old Live Oak trees.
Keep your distance from other people.
Practicing social distancing is essential right now. Follow the advice of the health experts. If your community has asked that you remain indoors and away from others, do so. Heading to the beach should only be considered an option if social distancing practices can be followed. Spending a day in any crowded place is the worst thing we can do for our most vulnerable right now and will counter the efforts to curb the virus’ spread.
