We love strolling the beach in the morning and before sunset. It's can be cold or warm so make sure…read moreout another layer :)

This beach was actually much nicer than I expected. It may not be AS beautiful as other nearby,…read moreeasily accessible beaches, but it's also not crowded AT ALL. The sand is white and soft and the water to me was fine. Easy free parking. I guess people complain about it being "dirty" but I lived 32 years along the pacific in southern California and compared to that, the Mississippi coast is practically drinking water. Maybe people just assume it's dirty because it's adjacent to the port and your mind starts to wander.... what's all that machinery putting out into these waters....??? In that regard, the beaches in Pass Christian are nicer because you don't have to look at the port, but when you're a little kid who just wants to run and swim and delight in the ocean, the view just doesn't really matter.

This was a super cool experience during our trip to Biloxi a few years ago. There was a dolphin and…read moresea lion educational show that was really fun but my highlight was the opportunity to be kissed by a sea lion! For a small fee, you receive a photo as the sea lion is planting a big wet kiss on your cheek! Another highlight was the budgie area where you bought sticks of food and the parakeets (budgies) landed on you and ate from them. It's not for the faint of heart or anyone that's afraid of birds, lol. This is a fun place to visit with kids or anyone who appreciates birds and marine life. Beware: in the summer, there's a lot of walking outdoors and it can get quite hot. Make sure you wear your sunscreen and bring a neck fan!

I'm all about rescue but from a visitor perspective a little more human communication would go a…read morelong way. At time of purchasing tickets it could've been mentioned what is and isn't available; would be very helpful. We were unable to feed and/or pet the stingrays, there was only 5 spots for kissing sea lion that were no longer available, so for a family unable to plan in advance with changing schedules it was a bummer. The bird feeder stick took me by surprise because it looks disappointing, however it was sufficient to get some of the birds to land. The dolphin/sea lion show was pretty good, I would just appreciate maybe a screen with whatever the speaker was saying, it was hard to hear in that room with the echo. All in all my family enjoyed it.

I really enjoyed this pool club experience. My hotel didn't have a pool so I bought a pool pass for…read morethe day here. The pool passes cost about $25 except on Friday. It's $35. I ended up going on a Friday and to my surprise, it wasn't terribly overpacked. However, I did get there quite early just as they opened. I was disappointment that I was not allowed to have a lounge chair, I was only allowed to have a couch spot that was further from the pool. Other than that, I loved the decor, the drinks and apps. I appreciated that they offered free available water and clean restrooms. They even supplied nice towels so you don't need to bring one if you're on a day pass. It also had a beautiful rooftop view. I'd definitely go back.

So I had a gin lemon mocktail to start, which really just tasted like a sweet lemonade... But after…read morethat one I switched to alcohol drinks - they were so delicious! I got a Tally Me Banana m, which was really nicely balanced between bitter and sweet and a hint of citrus. And then I got a chocolate spicy orange frozen cocktail... I wish I could find it somewhere on their website but I couldn't-- because I would love to try to re-create this at home! The pool bar server that I had two nights in a row was really amazing. The chicken wings were pretty good too. But the vibes... All the vibes were so relaxing and they had a really great DJ on Sunday. Definitely check their website because they have live music regularly.
