Ship Island Beach Day - Gulfport, Mississippi - New Orleans Day Four - July 2022
This is my trip to Ship Island off the coast of Gulf Port, Mississippi in July 2022. This visit was done through Ship Island Excursions. We saw many Dolphins and other wildlife on the boat ride to the island. We first explored Fort Massachusetts which was built during the Civil War era. Some military actions also took place on this island during the War of 1812. Next I enjoyed the beach by checking out fish, drinking seltzer and beer, boogie boarding, and eating at the snack shack. Finally, I took the ferry back to Gulfport and went to the neighboring city of Pass Christian and ate at Shaggy's Pass Harbor location to enjoy a Po'boy, a cocktail, and some shrimp dip. This is the final video from my New Orleans trip that took place in June and July of 2022. This was also my favorite day of the entire trip. I'd love to return to this island someday.

You are very welcome. I'm glad you enjoyed it. I hope you get to go back someday. Ship Island is great and I'd love to go back there myself.
I live in Gulfport now I would love to visit Ship Island but after watching this, the walking distance to the beach may be more than I am capable of.

I would estimate it is somewhere between a quarter and a half mile from the pier to the beach. Maybe they have wheelchairs available? Or perhaps you'd be able to bring one onto the ship?
I went there years ago. I wanna say mid 2000’s & from everything I remembered, it looks the same. The fort, the beach, & even looks like it might be the same exact boat

@@shooterridge Absolutely. I agree 100%. I'd love to go back here. The entire gulf coast region is beautiful. I really enjoyed how quiet and peaceful this place was.
I see the no feeding birds signs,that used to be a highlight of the boat ride the seagulls would catch popcorn right over your head and even out of your hand 😂 if you're not from this area you really need to explore the Florida pan handle the water is much clearer,Even a clear river in the central area.

Absolutely. I would love to explore the pan handle someday. Anywhere in particular you recommend?
Me, my Uncle Ron and my two cousins went there a long time ago (I was 10 years old at the time).

Did you remember having a lot of fun there? Does the island seem like it has changed much?

Gross. By the way it is the Golf of Mexico.
