Gulfport Travel Tips

  • Roll the dice at one of the 11 Mississippi Gulf Coast casinos, which offer 24-hour access to an abundance of slots and table games in the South's hottest gambling destination.
  • Take your kids to the Lynn Meadows Discovery Center, rated one of the region’s top children's museums.
  • Hop a cruise to Ship Island, a barrier island ten miles off the Gulf Coast. This is an ideal place for swimming, sunbathing, and shelling.
  • Savor an upscale dining experience at Mary Mahoney's Old French House in Biloxi, which serves up fresh seafood and steaks in an elegant home dating back to 1737.
  • Grab as many gold beads and doubloons as you can at the Gulf Coast Mardi Gras parade and celebration, the biggest in Mississippi.
