2. 4.5 Dothan Area Botanical Gardens (89 reviews)
   - Will visit again... with bug spray!
   Thursday: 7:00 AM - 5:00 PM Gardens
   
   
   My BFF and I visited this garden on our way through Dothan. WEAR BUG SPRAY!! Other than the bugs flying in your ears and eyes, the gardens were spacious and beautifully maintained. As someone with OCD, these were fantastic. Thank you for having everything clearly marked and labeled. What we really enjoyed and had no idea existed was the lock gates. Both of hurried to FaceTime our husband's to show this part of the garden. It's a fantastic idea. See more..
   
3. 4.0 Adventureland (69 reviews)

4. 4.0 Water World (64 reviews)
   - Pleasantly surprised and uniquely satisfied
   Thursday: 10:00 AM - 9:00 PM Water Parks
   
   
   With 4 brand new slides added to the Water park in 2020 this has changed the entire experience in an outstanding way. What was once an couple of hours of enjoyment for the family has now become worthy of an all day affair. Thrill seekers will find 3 unique slides to curb their appetites, while 2 more are wholesome fun for everyone. In addition the wave pool never disappoints, and the kiddie park pool is perfect for those who just haven't quite made the height requirement. The options of foot and sweets are perfect while needed a pit stop to refuel & I am quite certain everyone in attendance will gladly want to revisit again in the future! See more..
   
5. 4.0 Peanuts Around Town (48 reviews)
   - Something Fun to do while you are visiting Dothan
   Points of Interest & Landmarks
   
   
   Recently while passing through Dothan, we decided to stop in at the " Visit Dothan" Office. However, due to COVID-19, the office was closed. On the front porch were free brochures of things to do while in Dothan, so we had some extra time to kill and we decided to take the list and hunt for a few cool Peanuts! I think that there are about 60 plus painted peanuts around town, and we located 18 in about an hour and a half. If you decide to try and find them all, I would recommend starting early that morning and using the Peanut map locator as a guide. We had a lot of fun. I'm sure if you have kids they will love this. Each peanut offers a cool photo opportunity. I highly recommend stopping by the "Visit Dothan" Office and picking up the Peanut locator map, and go find your peanuts! See more..

   Spent More than 3 hours Points of Interest & Landmarks
   
   
   We originally came to Dothan for the peanut stuff, but the murals were a delightful surprise.

Definitely worth your time See more..

10. 4.5 George Washington Carver Interpretive Museum (14 reviews)
    - Small but Effective
    Spent < 1 hour Speciality Museums
    
    
    I recently visited Dothan, AL and thought I would get to know the town. I had a few hours so I asked the hotel staff to recommend something to do. The GW Carver Interpretive Museum was a place i was told could be worth a visit. I did. Was impressed by the history of African American unsung heroes who have made significant contribution to this country and are rather obscured names in history books. The visit was free and escorted. The building is an old bus station with reminders and remnants of the days of segregation Every American should be proud of the huge accomplishments made to be one nation. See more..
    
11. 4.0 Dothan Civic Center (9 reviews)
    - Dothan Opera House is Fabulous
    Civic Centres
    
    
    What a fabulous concert. Doug Stone opened for himself, took no breaks and finished in under an hour and a half. He sang audience favourites and they sang along in perfect tune. There were so many pairs of $$$ cowboy boots there I lost track. The Dothan Civic Opera House is a very old building which Dothan has gone to great pains to preserve and update to be accessible. Opera house staff and security could not have been more accommodating!! See more..
