What is there to do in Biloxi, MS besides the Casinos?|170511

We_re planning on going to Biloxi for Labor Day weekend, but I_m having second thoughts because there doesn_t seem to be much to do there besides gambling and I don_t like the whole Casino atmosphere anyway. Are there good clubs, sites to see, outdoor things to do, a nearby beach perhaps? Anything major? Also, how is the city now after Hurricane Katrina?

The one year anniversary of Katrina is August 29. I feel that the area is doing extremely well considering the massive devastation, however, it may still seem like a disaster area to someone who did not see the immediate aftermath. There are a couple of casinos open. The beaches are pretty much empty, there is still alot of debris in the shallow water. There are no clubs, restaurants, gas stations, homes, or hotels left on HWY 90 (the beach front road) this extends roughly from the LA state line to AL state line. I would recommend Gulf Shores AL, it is one of the most beautiful beaches and they have so much to offer.

I would say in the summer time if you like the beach you could hang out on the pretty beach with the white sand not like the dirty looking sand in Atlantic City.

I lived there a loooong time ago. There are boating excursions to some islands about 5 miles out. That could be fun.

the white beach is a great place to chill at...I_ve been there...that_s about it (other than the casinos-we went there too)

Don_t go to Biloxi right now unless you want to go to a Casino. The place was destroyed by Hurricane Katrina. Parts of the beaches are opened, but most are still closed because of debri, and the beach that is opened is dirty and VERY packed, it_s hard to enjoy yourself. Even the mall has stores that haven_t reopened because of the damage. All tourist or beach based stores and resturants are gone, and the entire town just looks like it was blown up. There is rubble everywhere. Go to Pensacol, FL instead, that_s a good beach town with a lot of tourist stuff to do.

my sister lives in biloxi MS and im sorry but there is nothing left there is a waterpark though but by the casinos its sad and scary there are casinos upside down and well u get the point there are no hotels srry
