Biloxi

In 1699 the French claimed the area that is now Biloxi, Mississippi for King Louis XIV, along with the lands as far northwest as Yellow Stone Park. Named for the Indian tribe that inhabited the area. After the Civil War, historic Beauvoir became the final home of Confederate President Jefferson Davis. The coastal area has been a favored resort since 1840… and the tradition continues today. Bright neon lights of casinos reflect across the warm waters as 24-hour gaming and world-class entertainment add to the fun and excitement of Biloxi, Mississippi. Historic ocean-side homes are open for tours during spring pilgrimage. And events like the Mardi Gras celebrations, Biloxi Seafood Festival, and Blessing of the Fleet are held each year along with Cruisin' the Coast and many more.
