The splash pads are open for specific times of the year, but is awesome for kids and the family. The park itself also has a concession stand that is also seasonal, and they have a bunch of snacks available. The park is great for picnics and bbqs.

Pascagoula Beach Park is an absolutely wonderful little park located, as the name would imply,…read moreright next to the water in Pascagoula, Mississippi. There are several pavilions, a children's play area, and more. I enjoyed just walking this park and along the pier just across the street. I also noticed that they had a lot of metal arch-type structures just before the pavilions that stated "PAVILIONS" throughout the property. I was talking to a client about it the next day, and he told me the shipping yard donated them to the community. This made sense to me. Pascagoula has a huge shipping manufacturer in their town. Obviously, this park was pretty popular to the community. The place had a lot of people just hanging out and enjoying being alive in the moment. Everything from a family enjoying the evening and a pizza, to joggers and dogwalkers to teenagers just hanging out were taking advantage of Pascagoula Beach Park. If business returns me to Pascagoula, Mississippi again, I would definitely return here. If life in general finds you in Pascagoula, Mississippi, I would recommend that you come check this cool place out. I will give it five stars.

From molded showers and ceilings to dirt, torn, and old carpets. My time was here was very miserable. Fast forward to Apr. 2018 when I got the news I would be coming back to this not so pleasant place. My mind raced with concern, surely the same living conditions couldn't exist to this day. Sep. 2018, I arrived and the exterior was the same. Not had changed... until I entered the building, new carpet and decor blessed the halls of this once old and run down building. I got my room key and proceeded to my newly remodeled 2 bedroom with a kitchenette. The best part was the privacy, though I share a bathroom/kitchenette we each have doors to our own private living space. This much needed upgrade will make this stay much more pleasant than the last and I am ok with staying now.

Yes, it is a beautiful lighthouse but it is a serious pain to visit. There is no parking nearby and…read morethe road that passes in front of it is one way. You'll end up looping all the way around and under the Pascagoula River High Rise Bridge to come back to it. Or, you'll follow the signs and end up crossing over the bridge to make a u-turn and come back over the bridge to get to the lighthouse which still has no parking. We were here at 8am on Sunday morning so I just did an illegal parking move, put the flashers on for a few minutes, and got my eye level tour of the lighthouse. Which is impressive. The Round Island Lighthouse began in 1833 as a brick tower guiding ships through the Mississippi Sound, then was rebuilt in 1859 with a taller red brick structure and a fourth order Fresnel lens. The Confederacy removed the lens during the Civil War, but the light returned afterward and stayed in service until 1949 before being used as a day beacon for a few more years. Erosion and neglect took their toll, and by the time the city received the property in 1986 the tower was already fragile. Hurricane Georges toppled it in 1998, and Katrina destroyed the partial rebuild in 2005. The surviving base was moved to the Pascagoula waterfront in 2010, where restoration continues to preserve what remains of the original lighthouse. Definitely stop by to see it and be creative with your parking. [Review 309 of 2026 - 116 in Mississippi - 25497 overall]

Across from them, another couple was abducted at the same time, a woman named Mary Blair and her husband. This case was reported to the police and multiple witnesses came forward. There are plenty of books and documentaries on this incident, because it has been documented and has multiple witnesses of the lights, spaceship, and abduction. Research it. The event itself occurred right across from this park, over the water, next to the shipyard. If you drive to the shipyard, you actually can walk on the exact sport where Parker and Hickson were abducted, as well as Mary Blair. I thought you'd like to know...
