I really like this park because it's right across the street from the beach, really close to restaurants and other family activities. There is also a splash pad for the really hot summer days and it's next to a really pretty outdoor theater. I would give the park 5 stars but the playground equipment this time we came really needs some updating, the suspension bridge is coming apart and could become hazardous to the kids playing if it's not updated soon.

Not the clearest water on the beach by the park, but it is the Gulf Coast. So peaceful on a Sunday afternoon!

See all

Mississippi Sandhill Crane National Wildlife Refuge

Mississippi Sandhill Crane National Wildlife Refuge

When travel we look for ways to get stamps for our NWR passport book and this was a must see stop…read morewhile we were in the area. The Mississippi Sandhill Crane National Wildlife Refuge was established in 1975 to safeguard the endangered Mississippi sandhill crane and its unique disappearing wet pine savanna habitat. The refuge consists of more than 19,000 acres in four units and is now part of the Gulf Coast National Wildlife Refuge Complex. The visitor center was closed when we arrived so we were unable to get a physical stamp but reached out and they mailed us one. At a National Wildlife Refuge, you can primarily engage in outdoor activities like birdwatching, wildlife photography, hiking, fishing, hunting (depending on regulations), and nature viewing while respecting the primary purpose of the refuge which is to conserve and protect wildlife and their habitats; many refuges also offer environmental education programs and guided tour possibilities are endless. Would know more if the visitor center was open so we took in the day and enjoyed watching the birds on this stop.

A nice walk through a smallish refuge. We saw a few interesting birds as well as an interesting…read morelizard. Once more, no directionals on the trail though it was fairly self intuitive. We didn't note any available restrooms. As we were on our way out, we actually saw a pair of Mississippi Sandhill Crane, which was unexpected given the time of year.
