Gulf Coast

The Mississippi Gulf Coast’s 62 miles of scenic coastline offers an incredible variety of attractions, excursions and activities, from outdoor adventures, such as kayaking, boating, fishing and hiking, to a wide variety of attractions, museums, festivals, world-class gaming and championship golf courses.

Each coastal community across the region has something different to offer; from scenic harbour towns and beautiful, walkable downtown areas shaded with live oaks, to world-renowned shows and casino headliner entertainment. Enjoy eco-tours of the rivers, marshes and bayous, a sunset Schooner Sail or Riverboat Paddle on the Gulf of Mexico or even a Shrimping Trip excursion to dive deep into the region’s fascinating maritime heritage.

Discover the Gulf Coast

Visit the Lynn Meadows Discovery Center, a nationally rated children’s museum, cheer on the Biloxi Shuckers baseball team at MGM Park, or even tour INFINITY Science Centre, where you can explore the farthest reaches of outer space, uncharted depths of the oceans and more!

The culinary scene is brimming with an array of offerings, from quaint seafood spots serving the freshest Gulf seafood, to farm-to-table fine dining and fusion cuisine.

There is always something to celebrate on the Mississippi Gulf Coast, with festivals held throughout the year, showcasing the region’s crafts, artisan-made items, local delicacies, seafood, talented musicians and much more.
