Classic Spots with a View
For those who prefer easy access and beautiful scenery, these well-loved locations give you the ideal mix of convenience and charm.
Gulf Islands National Seashore (Davis Bayou Area) in Oceans Springs offers a gorgeous setting with picnic tables, pavilions and a stunning bayou view. This spot is perfect for families, nature lovers and birdwatchers alike.
Waveland’s Buccaneer State Park is a great place for an all-day adventure. With shaded picnic tables, a water park and beach access, it’s a wonderful option for families looking for recreation and relaxation.
Jones Park in Gulfport is another excellent spot for a picnic. The well-maintained green space, shaded areas and scenic views of the marina make it a favorite. Plus, it’s close to downtown Gulfport’s shops and restaurants if you want to grab a treat to go.
