About Biloxi / Gulfport
The land stretching along Mississippi's Gulf Coast has evolved in numerous ways since the French settled here back in 1699. Today, glimpses of the area's storied past are evident in the weathered faces of the local fishermen and sprawling mansions surrounded by towering moss-draped oaks. Modernity, too, is represented with 12 glittering casinos bringing millions of tourists each year to wine, dine and put their money on the line. Once a row of thriving fishing communities, the Gulf Coast is now a prime vacation destination, with activities and attractions to suit all tastes. Browse for antiques in historic Ocean Springs, dine on fabulous seafood and po' boy sandwiches in Gulfport, learn about art and history at one of several top-notch museums, go shrimping in the Gulf, lounge on the shimmering 26-mile beach and enjoy sparkling nightlife in Biloxi - all in one weekend! Thanks to the seamless combination of yesterday's gentility and today's dazzle, the Gulf Coast is now a diverse, dynamic destination that has not forgotten its roots.

On Beach Blvd in Biloxi, the massive Ring-in-the-Oak is the subject of a well-known local legend. It is said that hundreds of years ago, when the New World had not yet been discovered, an Indian princess wanted to marry a brave from a different tribe. Her father said she could "when a ring grows in yonder oak," and the next day, a perfect circle had been formed in one of the branches. Despite numerous storms and hurricanes, the perfect ring formed by the limb is still visible today in the towering oak.
