While tourism is significant in the region, especially further south in the Gulf Shores area, the principal business along the Eastern Shore is retail. Large and expanding retail shopping centers mark both Daphne and Spanish Fort, while Fairhope is home to numerous smaller specialty shops in its downtown business district.
Tourism is predominant in Point Clear because of a large classical-style hotel and the presence of a championship golf course.
