Alabama is a great place to spend holidays with family. There are several vacation spots where one can enjoy with family and friends. We will talk about some of the most popular spots.
Blowing Wind Cave Wildlife Refuge is the habitat of various species of bats together with the rare gray and Indiana bats. No one can go inside the cave, but during the summer, when the sun sets, about half a million bats can be seen flying together out of the cave in search of food. To see this mass flight is really a breathtaking sight. In addition to bat watching, hiking, picnicking, and wildlife photography is quite enjoyable on this 264 acre Alabama Vacation spot.
Another Alabama fresco attraction is a Barge Tour at Daisy State Park. Here one can see eagles, as well as other wildlife. The park houses one of the largest eagle populations in Arkansas. Other spots popular for open barge tours are Lake Catherine State Park, Lake Chicot State, and Pinnacle Mountain State Park. The U.S. Space and Rocket Center is a great vacation spot.
