Hey, y’all! Nicole here, your Gulf Coast Gal!
I’m loving all the #girlpower in this issue and wanted to keep it going. I love hanging out with my Gulf Coast Gal Pals! We’ve narrowed down some of our favorite things to do along the Mississippi Gulf Coast.
SNIP & SIP FLORAL CLASS AT PINE HILLS
Pine Hills Floral offers a variety of classes throughout the year. Not only do you get to learn how to create a gorgeous floral arrangement, you also learn about the different types of flowers and how to care for them properly! Come early and see all the greenhouses and critters at the Plant Nursery.
MINI GOLF AT LAVA LINKS AND A SNOWBALL TREAT
Have a little friendly competition and enjoy some laughs at this gorgeous Scarlet Pearl amenity. Not only is it a ton of fun, but there are also a bunch of great places for awesome Instagram photos – including a volcano! Afterwards, head around the corner to Sweet Dulce for delicious snowballs.
SHOPPING IN DOWNTOWN PASCAGOULA
One of my favorite shopping areas lately is Downtown Pascagoula. Delmas Avenue has quite a few new shops that you’ll be excited to check out.
ART CLASS AT GULFPORT ARTS CENTER
With a variety of classes available like pottery, watercolor, drawing and more, there is bound to be something you and your girl group would have fun doing! Plus, there is an art gallery in the top portion of the building showcasing local artists.
Dinner on the Lot with Food, Booze, and Hiccups.
DINNER ON THE LOT WITH FOOD, BOOZE, AND HICCUPS
This dream team created one of the most fun and unique dinner experiences I’ve had with my gals! Their imaginative menus, love for the Coast, and passion for what they do oozes from each dinner seating.
BONUS GCG TIP:
A few of my favorite women-owned businesses are Can’t Stop My Selfie, Infinity Springs Spa, The Jackson Pearl, and Smallcakes.
That’s all for me, Gulf Coast Gal! Join me on the Mississippi Gulf Coast FB page and my GCG social channels so we explore all the #gulfcoastgoodness Coastal Mississippi has to offer including the above and so much more!
