It seems like all the bridges are no wake, and several narrow areas are no
wakes.
But you live there and no doubt have ran it more than me, so would know
better.

There is only one formal "no Wake Zone" in Florida between Penacola and
Mobile.  That is between just before Grand Lagoon State park Launching ramp
(Bridge to Perdido Key) and Galvez Ramp, just beyond Holiday Harbor.  There
are some informal "no wake" zones put out by marinas on the Alabama portion of
the Orange Beach/Portage Creek cut, and another couple of miles near the
entrance to Mobile Bay.--of these there is a total of about 6 miles out of
Mile 130 to Mile 185 (55 statuate miles).
