The Mississippi Department of Marine Resources maintains a coastal-preserves resource page with links to preserve regulations, a coastal trails map, and a public-access site map.
The listed trail systems include locations in Gautier, Biloxi, Hancock County, Pass Christian, and Ocean Springs. The maps provide a starting point for choosing an area and finding the relevant preserve information.
A location on a map does not establish today’s opening hours, access conditions, or water quality. Check the individual site and applicable preserve rules before traveling. We have not visited or inspected the locations in this guide.
WHY IT MATTERS
