Ono Island Alabama is located almost next to the Florida/Alabama line in Beautiful Alabama. This is the beautiful Gulf Coast area of Alabama known for its soft "Sugar Sands" beaches and beautiful blue Gulf of Mexico waters. Ono Island Alabama is that wonderful place where you will possibly find your "Paradise" here on earth. As you approach, you will first notice the Gated Guarded Entrance bridge to this private Island. This is the only way on or off the 5 and 1/2 mile long Island by car. The only other way off the Island would be by boat or if you swim well. Possibly you might use your private helicopter. This seclusion makes Ono Island perhaps the most exclusive piece of real estate on the Gulf Coast. The roads are well maintained and have a park-like look. Many of the Villas have extensive landscaping that blend wonderfully with the upscale neighbors. There are canals built throughout the island. This canal system allows easy boat access to the Gulf of Mexico along with the private docks and piers on both the Intercostals waterway to the North and on Old river to the South. The salt water fishing around the island is quite well known for its wonderful Red Snapper fishing. If golf is your favorite activity you will will want to try all that South East Baldwin County Alabama has to offer. In the local area of Ono Island there are at least 16 premier golf courses including two on the Florida Side of the line. Here you will find that peace that all of us enjoy with the excitement we sometimes require. Welcome!

Ono Island Alabama is said to be once known as "George Kee�s Island," and also known as "Goat Island." Originally George Ray Kee built the only house on the island, at the eastern end near Rabbit Island. He brought in more goats, allowed them to roam free until there were an estimated 2,000 goats on the island plus the Wild hogs that Kee allowed anyone to shoot for food. The hogs served a useful purpose. Hogs will eat rattlesnakes, which along with coons, were all over the island. If a rattler struck a hog it was usually on the muzzle, or snout, and a wild hog�s muzzle is too tough for a snake�s fangs to penetrate. Property rights for the Island were apparently not yet well established, and ultimately George Kee had to leave and lost possession of the land he had occupied.*

Harvell Kee, son of George Ray Kee, was the bridge tender at the canal drawbridge for twenty years dating from the time when the drawbridge was hand-cranked using concrete counterbalances and progressing through the years when a Ford engine connected to belts up the bridge.

At one time, two black commercial fishermen brothers, Monroe and Noland Hill, and the Wingate family were the only black families in the area. It was rumored that the Hill brothers had a moonshine still at Boat Bayou on Goat Island. Hogs and Goats were said to feed on the mash from their still. Like many commercial fishermen, the Hill brothers went barefoot most of the year. They were so well liked by people in the area that when they were walking, someone always stopped to pick them up. The Wingate family owned a beach on Big Lagoon, and are still one of the most prominent families in the community. They are still developing Condos, medium subdivisions, and residential developments.

Perdido Key (Spanish for "Lost Island") is said to have once had an estimated 300 natural springs bubbling up from the sandy bottom. There were so many around the bridge that when construction on the high-rise bridge began, bridge engineers were appalled to see pilings sinking down below the surface, following the soft course of a natural spring. They had their work cut out to build cofferdams to shore up the pilings to prevent them from sinking.

Perdido Key and Ono Island are still a place of wonder. You MUST see it for yourself!
