Make the Most of Your Long Beach Stay

A coastal respite with deep roots

Long Beach stretches along Mississippi's Gulf Coast as a quiet alternative to the region's casino-heavy neighbors, earning its nickname "The Friendly City" through genuine small-town warmth. The 500-year-old Friendship Oak on the University of Southern Mississippi campus stands as the city's living landmark, its massive limbs touching the ground beneath a canopy that has weathered centuries of hurricanes. Downtown's Jeff Davis Avenue offers locally owned boutiques and cafes, while the harbor provides direct access to the Mississippi Sound's beaches and fishing.

Culinary character and coastal access

The dining scene honors the city's agricultural heritage—Long Beach once held the title "Radish Capital of the World" in the 1920s. Radish restaurant pays tribute to this history with Southern ingredients, while Parrish's Restaurant overlooks the harbor with Gulf seafood. The beachfront along Highway 90 creates an ideal setting for morning runs or waterfront dinners, and the nearby Wolf River offers kayaking through one of Mississippi's cleanest waterways.

Practical positioning

Gulfport-Biloxi International Airport sits 11 miles east with Delta connections to major hubs. A rental car proves essential for navigating the coast, though downtown remains walkable. Day trips to Ship Island or New Orleans (90 minutes west) extend your Gulf Coast experience beyond this serene base.
