Lighthouse Pier is, as the name would imply, is by the lighthouse in Biloxi, Mississippi Andis a wonderful place to check out if you are in the area. There is plenty of parking and the view of the Gulf of Mexico is amazing. In the parking lot, there is also a statue of astronaut and Biloxian Fred Haise. I would definitely recommend a visit here and I give it five stars. read more

It was okay, nothing outstanding, where you get tickets for lighthouse , one and done . You Need to have more hours for the lighthouse. Just between 9-10 am is preposterous!! Need to tell customers you can't go all the way up before paying full price . Supposedly the wooden platform is soft in places. Not sure if that was the truth or she didn't want to go up all the 50+ steps. Who knows? read more

Loved this visitor center and was pleasantly surprised to find a full museum on the inside! The building is beautiful and right in front of the gulf. There was a wealth of information on the Biloxi area and it provided some interesting history. We loved all the exhibits and enjoyed the time spent there. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Theater on the second floor was nice. read more

Beautifully and thoughtfully decorated, the Biloxi Visitor's Center is a must stop location for anyone interested in the history of the gorgeous city. Situated across from the beach and the town's lighthouse, it's a great location to grab a snack, learn about the town and its locals, and buy fabulous souvenirs. read more

Even though this is located in my Hometown, I still like to visit throughout the year. This is because of the boutique store that is located inside. They carry custom gift ideas all made by local artists or photographers that is perfect for anniversaries or Christmas gifts. The visitor center is located on Beach Blvd, just north of the Biloxi lighthouse and the Gulf of Mexico. The views from the second floor balcony are stunning on a beautiful day. You can also catch great sunsets in the evening. The restrooms are clean and modern. The Biloxi center is a must visit while in Southern Mississippi. It's free to enter and you can get a Biloxi history lesson as well. It's fun for the entire family to enjoy! read more

The pier extends into Biloxi Bay, offering amazing views during both sunrise and sunset. Unlike many piers, this one is completely free and open to the public. You can walk out to the end and cast for fish or just sit out there and enjoy being a few hundred yards offshore. At 6:30am with a light fog and a gentle breeze, I was the only person here. It was very peaceful. The pier is quite wide (you can socially distance) and smooth enough for a wheelchair. There are benches and fishing stations along the way out. Earlier this year, a section of the pier broke loose and floated up onto the beach about a half mile away, https://www.facebook.com/210420622319688/videos/2707542516183778/. As of October 2020, the pier has not been repaired and it is gated off at the end for safety. The lighthouse pier is adjacent to the actual lighthouse, but they're separate. I'm looking forward to arguing with the Yelp people when they decide to join a lighthouse (a vertical structure) with a pier (a horizontal structure) because they're next to each other.

Fantastic Center!!! So much educational information with beautiful displays and artifacts.

To call this a visitor's center is an insult to the museum quality of information, exhibits, videos, and displays presented. Don't miss this place. It is awesome. read more

Yard maintenance is poor. Grass over 12" tall. Grass in flower beds taking over. Molding on building falling off. Inside stairs carpet filthy. Presentations were great. Get the audio tour guide. Free. Nice history presentation read more

The visitor center was very nice. It wasn't busy and we were able to walk around and see the different museum pieces and learn about the history of Biloxi and the community. They have a nice gift shop on the 1st floor and a video playing on the 2nd floor. The video is 15 minutes long and runs continuously. read more

This is a fun visitor center if you're in the Biloxi area and you have some time to kill, but wouldn't consider much of a destination to visit. It's located across from the Biloxi Lighthouse along Beach Blvd. It's a typical visitor center with a reception person ready to provide information about the area, pamphlets of area hotels/restaurants/attractions, and they provide complimentary coffee. There are a few history exhibits on the first floor and free audio guides if you don't want to read the information. On the upper floor, there is an auditorium with 2 films playing - one film on the history of Biloxi (every 15 minutes) and twice daily showings at 10 am and 2 pm a film about hurricane Katrina. read more

Gorgeous!!! This is one of the best visitors centers I have ever encountered. The location is awesome as it overlooks the beach and Biloxi's most famous landmark (the biloxi lighthouse). The building itself is an architectural standout with its grand staircase, floor-to-ceiling windows, and wraparound balcony. It resembles the former Dantzler plantation house that stood there since the 1850s before Hurricane Katrina came ashore. Check out the movie theater on the second floor that shows the short film "We are Biloxi". Lots of history about Biloxi can be learned here through all the exhibits they have displayed throughout this enormous 24k sq ft house. The visitors center is also one of the very best spots for a private party, wedding, or meeting in the city with its scenic views. Biloxi has a true attraction here with their visitors center. It is a must-see if in Biloxi. read more

Just a review about the gift shop. I called and asked if they had any Alex North photographs. I spoke with Nick. He told me that there were a few in the shop and I let him know I specifically was looking for a shrimp boat photo. He took photos, texted them to me. I was able to pick the one I wanted and he held it for me until I was able to pick up later in the day. He was just as friendly when I picked up my item. Thanks Nick! read more

This was not your typical visitors center experience. They really have a facility full of interesting items that represent the community. The facility is beautiful and well appointed. The people are extremely helpful and are excited to tell you all there is to do in the area! You need to see the videos and take the time to see all of the items on display. They have some really cool statues and carvings as well! read more

This has to be one of the nicest visitor centers I have ever seen, it was more like a capitol building inside. Very nice clean bathrooms and a very helpful lady at the help counter who was eager to help and give advice on where to go in the area. They had some nice artwork on display and the front porch of this place was awesome overlooking the ocean and the lighthouse out front. They even had a few rocking chairs out on the porch to sit and rock in. This building and the wrap around porch with the columns and the view across the street was a very nice treat to stop into while we were driving though Biloxi. Stop in if you have a chance if even for a potty break, I am sure you will find something interesting inside and take a bit longer looking at things and enjoying the view from the front porch. read more

After stopping to get our shrimp poboys we decided to go down to the Biloxi lighthouse to enjoy them. The view of the beach from the parking lot was beautiful. The fingernail moon reflecting of the water is a sight that really could not be captured with a camera. Saw folks making little videos and taking pictures and folks just enjoying themselves while there. In the hustle of busyness of Biloxi this is still one of the few places you can stop and slow down at. Like to come back again and relax after a night of work read more

This is the best visitor's center I've ever seen. Everyone is very friendly and this place has a TON of information about all kinds of things to do in the area. I had planned to just grab a few brouchures and leave but I ended up checking out their museum and watching the very informative video about Katrina. Be sure and check this place out so you'll know what the Biloxi area has to offer. read more

Stopped in to get some information about Biloxi and opportunities for tourists. Very nice visitor center with a bit of a museum. Lots of plaques with history, nothing interactive. They did offer audio boxes so that you didn't have to read each one. They also ran two different films throughout the day. One, about Hurricane Katrina, the other the history of Biloxi. The visitor center was actually closing early the day we stopped for a wedding. So there was not time for us to view either of the films or do the audio tour. The staff was very friendly and informative. They asked what we liked to do and gave us multiple suggestions. This should definitely be your first stop while in Biloxi. Much more to do and see than we originally realized. read more

If your goal is to get a sense of the character and color of this extraordinary city, I cannot recommend a better place to do it. The center contains art and history and presents both in a home transformed after Hurricane Katrina with love and attention to detail. The locally produced film on Katrina is a must see, told in the voices of local people capturing the resilience and strength of this historic city. Finally, it is staffed by knowledgeable and kind docents (Mia, I am looking at you :) and you will leave with a deep appreciation of this remarkable gulf coast city and its even more remarkable citizens. read more

This place was outstanding, and the place to start your visit, if you are not starting in a casino. They have wonderful displays, and will give you a heads up on all the points of interest to visit. If you are in Biloxi, dont miss Ocean Springs which is a really cool community located close by, read more

I've never seen a visitors center quite like the Biloxi Visitors Center!! It is very nice! It sits on Beach Boulevard directly across the street from the beach. Even though lots of bad things happened on old southern plantations you have to admit they are usually pretty to look at... With those gorgeous grand looking columns and welcoming porches perfect for sweet tea on a hot summers day.... Oh I do declare... Anyways the Biloxi Visitors Center looks like a very well kept good ole' southern plantation that has been scrubbed clean of any nasty history. If you enter thru the side entrance you will be welcomed with this gorgeous winding staircase and these beautiful carved wooden statues. The wooden statues and all the other displays in the center have TVs playing info about the display itself. The displays describe the history and culture of Biloxi as well as the hardships suffered by residents of the Gulf Coast (such as Katrina). The visitors center has two floors. An elevator as well as manual wheelchairs are provided. As you walk around the first floor there's a small gift shop, an information desk manned by a little old Southern lady, brochures galore and a gallery with more informative displays. Venture upstairs you will find a decently sized ballroom flanked with 2 camo-inspired fireplaces (... Who knows ...). The three french double doors of the ballroom open to a large southern balcony complete with white rocking chairs. Sitting up there and looking out to the ocean you'll wish you had a tall glass of sweet tea. Whenever you can drag yourself back inside from that tranquil southern balcony you'll find 2 additional rooms near the ballroom that I can only assume are used for business meetings and conferences. The Biloxi Chamber of Commerce is also located on the 2nd floor as well as a theater room that plays movies about Katrina and the history of Biloxi. I assume that the Biloxi Visitors Center holds weddings and receptions. With those southern porches and that beautiful view of the ocean, I think it would make a great wedding location. Parking for wedding guests could be iffy unless the city owns the open parking lot across the street. Also the ballroom couldn't possibly hold more than 100 people. But it's beautiful nonetheless. All in all, the Biloxi Visitors Center is worth a visit!! read more

We just went to the "Welcome Center"-the girl at the front desk asked if we needed help but then never looked up again and we were in there over 30 minutes.The girl in the small gift shop never spoke to either myself or my husband. She never even looked up when we went in. The girl seated at the literature did answer my question about a t-shirt.This was a very unwelcome welcome center read more

This is a cool place. There's a museum and a gift shop. They also show a film about the devistation of Katrina. They have awesome employees who are more than willing to chat about their city. Ask about the tour train that picks up across the street by the lighthouse. Great place to visit for all their history. read more
