The Weeks Bay reserve comprises 6,525 acres of water and tidal and forested wetlands and is managed by the Alabama Department of Conservation and Natural Resources (ADCNR) and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), with support from the nonprofit South Alabama Land Trust and individual volunteers. The reserve was established in 1986 to preserve a representative portion of Mobile Bay’s estuarine habitat for research and educational programming.
