Coastal Mississippi is known for its sunshine and breathtaking views, and winter brings its own charm! When the weather calls for a cozy indoor adventure, the Coast delivers endless ways to stay active and entertained. From exciting pickleball matches to high-energy trampoline parks, there’s always something fun waiting for you—inside and all across the Coast!
One of the Coast’s hottest new sports is pickleball. It’s fast- paced, easy to learn, and wildly addictive. The Picklr in Biloxi offers 15 indoor courts, tournament-level lighting, and a friendly community that welcomes beginners and pros alike.
In Gulfport, Southern Swing Sports keeps things fresh with a multi-sport setup where you can play pickleball, take some swings in the HitTrax batting lanes, or test your golf game on high-tech simulators, all without stepping outside.
MGM Golf at the Beau Rivage turns golf into a full-blown experience with more than 40 games that go way beyond your typical round of 18 holes.
For those who prefer a simpler setup, the Donal Snyder Community Center in Biloxi offers affordable open play on four pickleball courts, perfect for a casual match with friends. The center also has an indoor track, basketball and racquetball courts.
