Make the Most of Your Bay St Louis Stay

A coastal arts enclave

Bay St. Louis occupies a distinctive position along Mississippi's Gulf Coast, where a thriving artistic community has taken root in a town that predates statehood itself. Incorporated in 1818 as Mississippi's first city, this waterfront destination earned its reputation as a refined retreat for New Orleans society, and that legacy persists in the Creole cottages and Victorian mansions lining oak-shaded streets. The downtown district maintains an approachable sophistication, with galleries and boutiques occupying restored buildings.

Gulf cuisine and local character

The dining scene elevates regional ingredients through restaurants like The Sycamore House, where Gulf shrimp and grits are served in 19th-century cottages, and Thorny Oyster, which pairs raw bar selections with coastal cuisine. The Historic L&N Train Depot anchors the cultural district, housing both a Mardi Gras Museum and folk art collection within its 1928 Mission Revival structure. The 100 Men Hall stands as a Mississippi Blues Trail landmark where legends once performed.

Practical considerations

The town rewards exploration on foot, particularly along North Beach Boulevard where carved Angel Trees commemorate hurricane recovery. A rental car from Gulfport-Biloxi International Airport (20 miles east) provides flexibility to experience nearby destinations like Ocean Springs or New Orleans, just an hour west.
