Biloxi Suggestions
 
Will be in biloxi area for about a day. Just looking for suggestions on to do's, best local type food, etc........

Skip it and add time to you half day in Mobile or your half day in the bayou country or your half day in Pensacola.

Unless you gamble, in which case you can go to a Casino.

So the Biloxi area is nothing worth stopping for at all?

jedivader May 23rd, 2015 05:56 AM

Is there a better are to stop and look around on the MS coast? Gulfport or something?

What about areas around Biloxi (Gulfport, Ocean Springs)?

Ackislander May 27th, 2015 08:44 AM

Ocean Springs used to be really nice, but there have been so many hurricanes from Camille to Katrina, that I don't know what this version is like.

Beauvoir is well worth a visit, but you said in one of your other posts that you don't enjoy history, so there is not much point in spending the money or time.

There are interesting island off shore that you could visit, or you could go charter fishing, but you can't do either if you only have half a day.

Thanks for the info. I do enjoy history, but have done many historical tours in the past and they start to look and sound the same.

Not a lot To do in Biloxi, but I liked it better than Mobile. Nice coastal drive. One of the areas with a lighthouse was very trashy. I found nothing to do in Mobile at all. Finally did my Gulf Coast drive, so thanks for the info.

Oh, Ocean Springs was nice. Very tiny Main Street area with shops and bars/food, plus a nice walking area down by the water is not far from that.
