The beach

Your Private Stretch of Sugar-White Sand

Cabana Pearl is a short 2–3 minute walk from Cabana Beach’s private beach access, with white sand, emerald water and room to spread out.

Walk to a Private Beach

Cabana Pearl sits in the private Cabana Beach community on the Fort Morgan peninsula. Walk down the street and over the boardwalk to a private, uncrowded beach, then come home to rinse off and relax on the deck.

And yes, your dog can come too. The private beach is dog-friendly, which is rare on Alabama’s Gulf Coast. See our pet-friendly guide.

Beach Day Tips

Beach Etiquette

Bring the 2 beach parking passes with you if you drive to the access, and leave them at the house for the next guests ($250 fine per lost pass).
Rinse off at the outdoor faucet before going inside, and leave sandy chairs and toys downstairs.
Stay off the dunes and sea oats: the house backs up to protected dunes, and there is a $150 fine for littering.
Check the beach flags before swimming. Rip currents happen, and Gulf wildlife (crabs, fish, dolphins, jellyfish and more) shares the water.
Golf carts are not permitted for guests in the neighborhood per the HOA, so walk or drive to the beach access.

Beach Warning Flags

YellowMedium hazard: moderate surf and/or currents. Use caution.
RedHigh hazard: high surf and/or strong currents.
Double RedWater closed to the public.
PurpleDangerous marine life, such as jellyfish or stingrays, is present.

Conditions change daily, and the absence of a red flag doesn’t guarantee safe water. Swim at your own risk.

Sea Turtle Season

From May 1 to October 31, sea turtles nest on Alabama’s beaches and hatchlings follow moonlight to the water.

Turn off lights facing the beach at night and close the blinds.
Fill in holes and take your gear off the beach each evening.
Never disturb nests, tracks or hatchlings.
Report sightings: 1-866-SEA-TURT.

Protected Dunes

Fort Morgan’s dunes shelter the endangered Alabama beach mouse, nesting shorebirds and sea oats that hold the beach together. Use the boardwalk, and leave the dunes as you found them.
