Wow. That water looks amazing. pardon my ignorance, but can I get to the islands on a jet ski or does it require a boat. We don't own one and I know nothing about boats so it seems like a bad investment for me

I don't mind a little murkiness. I grew up swimming in warrior river in alabama and I am sure it's cleaner than that. I just didn't know if there were other pollutants or reasons the kids could not get in the water, like from the harbors/wildlife or something.

There’s flesh eating bacteria sometimes during the summer months, but it’s usually only gnarly old fishermen who it affects. You can monitor it:

One other thing. In addition to the Gulf/Mississippi Sound and the bays, boaters and waverunner riders have the opportunity to go inside on rivers such as the Tchoutacabouffa, Biloxi, and Fort Bayou (which empty in Back Bay) and the Jourdan and Wolf (which empty into St. Louis Bay). These are nice freshwater rivers, very popular.
