Scenic Coastal Region - Gulf Coast Mississippi
If you enjoy sailing, skiing, boating, saltwater fishing, golf, scenic island beaches, and perfect weather, the Gulf Coast region might be your best choice! To spice it up,
Mississippi's coast also has its own Mardi Gras and huge casino resorts including Jimmy Buffet's "Margaritaville" opening in 2009. Throw in shipbuilding, shrimping,
military bases, and NASA and you have the diverse,
egalitarian, and fun-loving culture of the Mississippi Gulf Coast.
The Coast offers Prime outlets, two large indoor centers and many more shopping locations. There are also 22 gulf courses located throughout the Coast, some designed by golf pro's such as Arnold Palmer. Hundreds of restaurants line the Coast with specialties in everything from Cajun and Creole to an abundance of fresh seafood.
These coast events are complimented by the variety of area attractions, such as the Biloxi Lighthouse, Marine Life Oceanarium and other unique attractions such as Alligator Farms. Another favorite attraction is the Stennis Space Center & Museum which features the StennisSphere. The Coast is also filled with a variety of museums, both of art and history.
