Multiple good restaurants on Highway 49 in Gulfport. Irish Coast Pub, Thai Lotus (closed for the weekend), El Agave, Port City Cafe. I think they have a Port City Cafe in Biloxi too.

Sophi's on Pass Road in Biloxi and Aristo's in D'Iberville are good options for Greek food.

Bigger is always better, and in the world of open-mouth-shark-head-entrances to gift shops, the head at Sharkheads was among the biggest: 32 feet tall and 26 feet wide.

Seven years later a new store and 32-foot-tall shark head were built at the same spot, a nightmarish toothy beacon for a new generation of flip-flops shoppers.

If you can not find anything on the coast you like you should likely just move to Detroit or just kill yourself, seriously.

You are either trolling or one miserable SOB.

Biloxi MS? Man is it hot. It's like Africa hot. Tarzan couldn't take that kind of hot.

Mary Mahoney's across from The Beau is the best bet for a non-casino restaurant. You can never go wrong with Ruth's Chris in Hard Rock.

Shucker's games are a good time. The Palace is the only smoke-free casino, our preferred one. The Coliseum has events/fairs, schedule online.

Not Biloxi but easy drives:
-Ship Island excursion out of Gulfport is fun.
-2nd Saturday in BSL every month is a fun time as is the whole bar/restaurant scene along the beach and Main Street.
- I've heard The Pass has some decent restaurants but no first hand experience to pass along.

MS Gulf Coast in small doses is ok; it's definitely not on the level of Orange Beach or 30A tho.

Cork once said the resorts in Biloxi can make you feel like you are at a Palm Springs Resort.



No doubt. The water is equally clear in both places.

They have a thing you can rent. Its pretty much a wheelchair with these big arse wheels. It looks kind of goofy so I am not down with that, but I will usually find a place to hang out..

Like if we go to Orange beach, we stay at the Caribe.. I will go hang out at the bay and fish. And no, I don't need anyone to help me fish. Well, if I catch something that is hard to reel in I do, but that has only happened maybe... once.

It's not near the level of Orange Beach, in terms of beaches, but there's a lot more to do in Biloxi. I recently posted several things to do in a thread on the travel board.

I can actually use my legs to pedal. Not for a long time at once, but I actually have more strength in my legs than you probably assume

I'll be honest, I have zero clue about any of that stuff

There was a couple people in grade school and junior night and HS that rode around in chairs... then a couple people around that I've met thst got shot and are in regular chairs not motorized..... couple homeless bum type fat asses that ride around the CBD drinking all day that live in public housing..... but don't know anyone personally that has and handicaps in my family or anything.

So that's my extent of it all..... I just want to drive the van with the hand controls

For someone slumming it in BR, Biloxi is a no-brainer.
