We loved this place! Was not to busy and had hand sanitizer on each level. You can learn a lot, you’re going to be spending around 2 to 3 hours here . You learn about boats, seafood, islands around the coast and so much more. They also have a hall you can rent, someone was holding a baby shower there while we visited .$15. For adults $13. For seniors .

Very nice museum, loved the items inside and the history of them all.

A very comprehensive museum located on 2 floors with many photos, films, dioramas & scaled replicas - all right next to beach, plenty of parking, only a few bucks pp to enter. A cute gift shop with plenty of items. Worth the trip.

Gorgeous building. An easy way to spend an hour and good jumping-off point for exploring East Biloxi.

Interesting seeing the old boats and reading about their history. And the seafood industry history!!!

Great little museum on the Mississippi gulf coast. Were working with a new client who is heavily involved in the revival of the Mississippi seafood industry, specifically as it relates to oyster fisheries. That same client recommended our creative team visit this museum to familiarize with the regions history and evolution. It was a great recommendation and we have much more of a historical perspective to begin working on this new project.

Seafood is the best food ever, its always nice to see the history of something you never thought about. 90% of people will never be eating crab and think I wonder about how they use to get them. But its very informative.

The museum has wonderful displays with historical details about the seafood industry and lots of local boating history. We spent roughly 2-1/2 hours there and couldve easily spent another hour. The museum is 3 floors of videos and displays that were incredibly informative.The museum closes at 4:30 so plan accordingly. We arrived around 2 oclock and still missed some displays and videos we really would have liked to see. And we missed the gift shop completely. I wouldve really enjoyed looking at the artwork for sale as well as the jewelry. Were planning on coming back to the area and have added this to our must see again items.

This is a great museum! The staff is very friendly. There are three levels. They suggested that we start at the top level. This was great advice. We really enjoyed the hurricane history room. The seafood industry equipment is very neat. The sailboats are beautiful. They have a military, senior, and student discount. So, its a reasonable price.

What a beautifully curated walk through the history of this important coastal industry! Its a perfect place for a pandemic compliant safe days outing.

Very informative! A ton of artifacts. Really informative description of the fishing industry in the Gulf region. Really nice presentation and preservation. Reasonable price. Modern facilities. Knowledgeable staff. Museum store and gift shop.

I enjoyed the place.It was neat, clean and informative. Well worth the visit.

Wonderful museum! A must see! Awesome

We enjoyed a rainy day at this museum, and had a very memorable experience. My kids enjoyed all of the exhibits as well as the gift shop.

Very well laid out. There is a lot of reading to do if you will get anything out of this place.

Attended a wedding there..very nice

Surprising amount of interesting things to see here. Definitely worth an hour of your time. Nice view from the grounds too.

What a beautiful museum. I cant wait to bring my husband there when he gets in town. They had a room dedicated to hurricane Katrina. It made me cry to watch the movie they showed. I had no idea this area was hit so hard. It seems the news at the time concentrated mostly on New Orleans.

Interesting history of Biloxi area from early1900s thru Hurricane Katrina

Extremely interesting exhibits, spanning the entire time line of the industry in the gulf. Many full-size boats on site. Schooner rides on the Bay available.

Very interesting and well worth seeing

Lots of great history! Very nice and helpful employees!

What a beautiful place on the water on the point in Biloxi, went to the Oyster Ball Drop, great event really good food and drinks at event, band could have been a little more dance music but they sound good. Would like to go back and experience all the exhibitsThanksBarry R Jones JrMelanie Mahaffey JonesMelanie Elaine Thomas

Cool museum. And cheap too. Spent 2 hours looking.

Great place to have a wedding!

The museum was used by Mississippi DOT for welcome reception for the Regional Equipment ROADEO. Three floors of light food and drinks. Excellent displays of the areas history and sea-related items. Staff was very nice. Will definitely go again when not on a conference so time to look more.

Beautiful museum and lovely, friendly staff.

Great place! 3 floors of interactive and informational fun!!! Bathrooms were clean and there is a small park with restrooms and pick nick tables out front. Worth a trip!

Nice and well organized. We enjoyed the displays and educational aspect. Reccomend.

Loved and highly recommend the Camille exhibit and unsure as to why it is not permanent. Seems logical home for it! One suggestion would be to add a category comparison chart between the 3 major hurricanes... wind speed, pressure, storm surge, cost (with adjustment for inflation), etc

Cozy place, full of history, is amazing how was rebuild after Katrina hurricane,

Great Video on hurricane Katrina. (Little long ). History of shimp, oyster, and fishing industry. Good for older kids and adults

Great place to take your maritime peeps...♡

Walk through museum with a ton of information in it. Not for little kids but good for older kids and adults.Requires a lot of reading and patience. Lots of history.I enjoyed it, my kids, not so much.

Im always interested in museums that tell the story of the industry of an area, and this one does an excellent job. It also portrays the people who made Biloxi the seafood capital of the world in the early 1900s, how they lived and why things changed. Beautiful boats build locally, great use of video. And just the right size - worth visiting!

This local museum presents its topic in an engaging and meaningful way. Ideally, attend with your mom who can point out her shrimper-fathers name on the statue and at the end of the video on the second floor; short of that - go see this museum for a genuine flavor of Biloxi - former fishing-capital of the world. BONUS - by presenting the effects of various storms on the region over the years and the specific, permanent effects on the area due to hurricane Katrina, this museum can be viewed as a warning to the world about what may be lost in the near future due to climate change.

Good place. I enjoyed the exhibits, good information. boats and models look really good.

Good museum. The Hurricane Camille exhibit was eye opening to the ravages that storm visited on the coast and the local people. My only complaint is that it didnt take long at all to see everything.

Very nice enjoyed, lots of local history. 3 floors ans they do have a elevator.

This museum was extremely well done with displays that explained the local history. The display on hurricanes really brought to light how much this area was affected.

A lot of memories here. Definitely a good place to visit while in town!

Great exhibits and films. Worth the time.

Inexpensive museum worth spending an hour or so exploring. Very nice displays about local Shiloh building and seafood industries. Staff was very friendly and willing to answer questions.

Awesome museum - tons of information and well worth the low cost of admission!

The displays feel a bit unorganized. Also, The camille exhibit was a bit disappointing. Id be interested in seeing a more robust timeline of not only the hurricane, but recovery efforts as well. The before and after pics were good, but how about adding current or after rebuild ones too.

Surprising. Absolutely phenomenal! Learned a lot and really enjoyed visit. Building footprint makes you expect much less!

Interesting place. Very clean and well-maintained. Didnt cover the contribution AA had to the industry.

Nice museum about the history of the Gulf Coast and Biloxi. Nicely organized and goodd3escriptions 3nd time lines.

Nice place! If you are interested in the maritime history of the Mississippi Gulf Coast, this is a great resource.

This place is always wonderful to visit. But, this time i was there for a party so this time it was a little different. It accomodated about 100 people reasonably. Much more and it would have been too many.

Really informative and enjoyable. About 2 hours plenty of time. Visual studios were great.

Lord of pictures and stories of the history of Biloxi and the seafood industry. Also some beautiful examples of sailing boats.

We spent a wonderful few hours here. Very informative with a lot of artifacts. Well worth visiting.

Very informative and cheap entrance fees.

Great staff. Lots of history that I would never have encountered otherwise. The surrounding area also makes for a lovely stroll. Nothing flashy; this is perfect when you need to take a breather and relax. Note that there is a small amount fee.

We toured the museum and saw many items related to boats of all kinds, engines, replicas of many boats and tools of the trade in the sea food industry. This definitely was a history lesson of our area, both years ago and to the present.

Amazing museum that really tells the story of the Gulf town of Biloxi. So glad I went. Friendly staff, clean and informative. A must for anyone visiting the area.

Very well presented. Lots of information. Well worth visiting.

Very nice staff and suprising interesting facts.

Educational, but you have to put in the time to read all the placards on the displays.

Could easily spend an hour or more inside, especially if you enjoy local history.

It had so many interesting things!! Enjoyed every minute... Great memories

Great history of the fishermen and their vessels. Lots of interesting local information. The volunteers are very knowledgeable and interesting (Edgar). Worth a visit and they have several films I unfortunately didnt have time to watch. May not be good for small kids but they have plenty else to do on the coast.

This is an extraordinary local museum. The displays are generally well organised and informative. The graphic wall sequence of coastal zone history requires attention, but is worth it. The long videos about the evolution of maritime commerce show the challenges and immense changes faced by the folks that weathered it.

Beautifully designed, very informative.

Its okay. Cute and informative. Great for those who love ships.

Watched the movie on Katrina, which made you feel like you were there. After being here a couple weeks, we could pinpoint many spots that were filmed, including right by where we are staying. The hotel that was here was demolished. Frank enjoyed the boats on display and all the fishing and shrimping info

Great museum! Very well organized and phenomenal collection! The setting on the water is beautiful. Fantastic!

Great place to take your family, loved talking to a volunteer there that had so much knowledge about the artifacts. There is a small play area for kids to play outside of the museum that is free, real nice. There is a fee to enter the museum but its totally worth it.

Thoroughly enjoyed

AwesomeSpent 2 hourscould spend longer time there

I loved it. The wife and I spent a good hour and a half here. Lots of reading and fun facts to go around. The boat that is on the 2nd floor was my favorite.

Really nice museum.

Nice place is your into maritime stuff

Cool place if you are into fishing

We really enjoyed museum.

So much to see and worth seeing. Highly recommended even if youre not into maritime history, such as Katrina photos and videos.

Really a great museum to learn about the Biloxi prior to 1900 thru Katrina. Would recommend for anyone. The only negative was the closed caption was not working for hearing impaired.

Beware liars and thief’s.....Booked 2 tickets for Christmas cruise Dec 1. Was told the Captain Would give refund if had to cancel.....when paying for tickets........called today 3 days before cruise to cancel .was told very rudely tickets non refundable.If had been told this when booking would not have booked.Very sad since I specifically asked and was outfight lied to. What a way to run a business

Awsome

We attended a wedding rehearsal dinner there. It was a very unique and charming atmosphere. It does not get more nautical feeling for an event than dining next to a full size sail boat.

Great Museum! Always a friendly atmosphere.

A small but poignant museum with heartbreaking video of Katrinas devastation. Personal memories of people and places, for me, was quite emotional. The Gulf shrimping industry carries 75 years of history in my own familys relationship to Biloxi.

Very interesting and in-depth look into the shrimping, boating community

Very nice place with great staff. They have a lot of history to see.

Showed up today at 1pm. and it was closed. The web site said noon to 4pm on Sundays. Make certain to call first.

Cool place to visit

Interesting stuff but the building has hot

Had a blast at CCRS!!

We held an event downstairs that was perfect setting for us. Robin and staff were awesome to work with and the Museum is a wonderful thing to go see, very informative and beautifully laid out.

Was there a for Saturday afternoon meeting. The facility was great and accommodating all of us.

Real nice place to to visit

Our daughter attended the summer camp and loved it! This is a great place to visit, full of wonderful historical info and unique artifacts and displays.

Fun fantastic and very interesting stuff exspialy when you grew up in the industry.

Very nice very educated, enjoy it a lot, take your time and see everything

Good place to visit and get out of the casino.Not a lot there but if you like that kind of history worthy of a couple hours.

Fascinating museum. Loved the hurricane room. Plan to stay for a bit and learn about the Gulf Coast!

Biloxi seafood history

Such a wealth of information and history!! Really enjoyed it.

Walk in shower only. Comfortable bed. Walk in the sand. Clean room. Good food. Friendly staff.
