There is a good-sized parking lot but on a busy beach day it can get full. The children's play area is new and in good repair. Close proximity to downtown Ocean Springs, so if you stay in the downtown area somewhere it is a only a short walk to the park and the beach. Highly recommended. This is a great place to spend some time and enjoy the beach.

There is playground equipment, a splash pad (closed for the season), pavilion, and a stage. The historical marker that details Pierre Le Moyne, Sieur d'Iberville, and the first attempt to establish a French presence on the Mexican Gulf is interesting as is the adjacent statue of the man. Across the street from the park is a great fishing pier. A decent sunset picture can be acquired from here. [Review 14177 overall, 1499 of 2020, number 68 in Mississippi.]

The entire park is 2.5 acres with several trees and pavilions with picnic tables, garbage cans, and some even have grills. The park is open Dawn til 10 pm, 7 days a week. Pets are allowed, but are required to be on a leash.

As the name implies, there are cannons and memorials to local veterans and Katrina victims. Very respectful and nicely done. Lots of trees and shade. There are public restrooms available. There is a playground and a splash pad and lots of benches to sit and take it all in. If you are a walker (like me), a walking trail meanders through the park and has exercise stations every so often. It's more of a trail/path than a track. The surface is loose, recycled tires or rubber mulch so it's nice for a stroll but you won't get any speed up. Since the park is small, you won't get any distance unless you walk a zillion laps around. I was there on a Saturday morning and there was a Craft fair/Farmer's market going on, with a lot of vendors, artists, and growers all peddling their wares. There were some tasty-looking food trucks too. I didn't ask but it seems like the market is a regular event. It may be every Saturday, and certainly weather-dependent, but I didn't get to find out how often.

From yelping there wasn't much parks with good reviews so we decided to try this out. There wasn't much photos from other reviews on this park so I'm fixing that. I'm pretty impressed because it's just the perfect spot. Lots of shade for mommy's to lay a picnic nap down and let the kids play close by. Also glad to carry a picnic mat in reasons like today. There is also a under 3 play area, haven't tried it out but looks small but good. Splash pad is near by but not open. FYI... if your coming from Gulfport and needing to get lunch on the way to park there is only a McDonald's and Burger King. McDonald's on a picnic mat made this such a perfect day!

Before boarding, the small gift shop had some interesting items along with snacks and drinks. The restroom was not what many expected, but come on, it was on a wooden pier! There was a shared sink for hand washing. It was quite clean. Boarding the boat was well organized. Those needing assistance were helped and treated very well. This is an old boat and moving around on open water does require holding on to poles, railings hand holds. The boat has snacks and drinks for sale while underway. The boat captain and crew were friendly, funny, and entertaining. All were interested in ensuring those wanting to see dolphins had plenty of opportunities. Extra effort was made for the kids. Our trip out and back had many sightings. Keep in mind, dolphins are out feeding in the wild. They may or may not be in the area.

According to a resident, locals often frequent Ship Island to sail around on their personal boats, though the Ship Island Excursion boat takes tourists for a 30 minute cruise, at several convenient times throughout the day. The Fort on Ship Island survived Hurricane Katrina, though there was some damage to the amenities on the Island (such as the snack bars and bathrooms). Ship Island is a great destination for fishing and relaxing, and the emerald clear waters are teeming with sealife, and I even saw blue crabs, starfish, pelicans, and...dolphins! Make sure to stay until the sunset, which is spectacular as it illuminates the sky...

The beach was undergoing some renovation with heavy equipment/machinery bringing in fresh sand. No we were there during the off-season.. the beach itself has beautiful, white sand and was fairly clean. It stretches for quite a ways and there are several beach bars/restaurant establishments on Biloxi Beach that you can dine out at. There's also a large souvenir shop called shark heads on Biloxi Beach that was fun to visit. Because we were there in April, it was a little too cold to spend extended time on the beach, but we enjoyed evening walks to watch the sunset. Note, Biloxi Beach is on the Mississippi sound so the water is brown. You may spot Atlantic bottle nose dolphins!

We stopped here to spend a little time on the beach and experience the Gulf of Mexico. Unfortunately for us, there are multiple signs that say they do not allow dogs. We travel with our small dog and we don't like to leave her in our vehicle. My husband stayed with her while I checked the beach out for a bit. I really didn't think it was anything special. The sand here is super fine and you will notice that most people are taking their shoes off and leaving them in the parking lot. It's very difficult to get this sand off of you. There was also a smell, I want to say it was like sewage, but it wasn't that strong, just strong enough to make me not want to stay. Because of that I did not venture into the water. As I said, there is a parking area adjacent to this beach and a paved boardwalk that goes around where people were jogging and walking their dogs. This is definitely a functional beach and there were lots of family and children on the beach when I visited.
