Overview

Biloxi is the main spot on the Mississippi coast, located along Biloxi's famous white sand beach on the Mississippi Sound. The city, known for its casinos and maritime history, offers a long rebuilt beach facing the protected waters of the Sound. The offshore barrier islands (Ship Island, Horn Island) filter the Gulf of Mexico swells. The spot is easily accessible with plenty of parking and amenities nearby thanks to the city's tourism infrastructure.

On the water

Mississippi Sound water, shallow with sandy bottom. Flat to choppy conditions depending on wind strength. The barrier islands provide effective swell protection. Very warm water in summer (28-30°C), allowing riding in boardshorts. Good body of water for all levels thanks to moderate conditions.

Hazards

Jellyfish in summer, sometimes in significant numbers. Violent and sudden tropical thunderstorms — monitor weather constantly. Maritime traffic in the Biloxi channel. The Mississippi coast is in the hurricane zone from June to November. Possible underwater debris. Weak but present currents near channels.
