7 Wonders of the Eastern Shore  
Chosen by 5th and 6th Graders at Fairhope West Elementary 

Have you ever wandered around the Eastern Shore and thought, ‘WOW, this is a pretty astonishing place’!  

Have you ever wandered around the Eastern Shore with a kid in tow and thought ‘WOW, why did we come here’?  

Well, your worries are over if you are looking for something affordable, fun, and kid-approved to do all year round! The 5th and 6th grade gifted students at Fairhope West Elementary were given the task to highlight the 7 Wonders of the Eastern Shore and had to give a brief description of why they chose the places they did which are highlighted in our video.  

Their teacher, Margaret Dumas, reached out to Explore Eastern Shore and the Eastern Shore Chamber of Commerce with the results and we thought they were pretty ‘WONDERful’.
