You can get the idea of size by the people on the bow and the ramp.
Lots of equipment around.
An interesting bit of info, the ship also serves as a Hurricane Shelter.
The boys had a great time feeding the seagulls too.

USS Alabama
On our most recent trip to the beach, we stopped at the USS Alabama in Mobile, Alabama for a sack lunch. We usually bring sandwiches to eat somewhere along the route. They taste better and we can eat a little healthier.
The parking costs $2.00 and is well worth the price for a few picnic tables and a nice gulf breeze. The park area is loaded with a lot of military vehicles, but you can't climb on them. I would have really liked for the boys to be able to climb into and on some of them to get an idea of what our Grandfathers rode in WWII.
