Visiting the casinos of Biloxi and The Mississippi Gulf Coast

[ncc1853]

It was a well-made video. However, I found it more of a tourist guide rather than a casino guide. what about the gaming? Which casino had the best payouts? Best video poker paytables? Best blackjack rules? Highest craps free odds?

We have that information published in our book, American Casino Guide. The new 2012 edition has a story titled, "The Best Places to Play on the Gulf Coast." You can buy the book on amazon-dot-com or our web site, americancasinoguide-dot-com. Sorry, but we can't give all of the information away for free!

Excellent video! I was there casino hopping for a week in Nov. 99 My friend lived next to the KAFB in Biloxi, just about 1/2 mi from Boomtown Casino. I believe Beau Rivage was still in the process of being erected, or finished but yet to be opened. It sure is interesting to see how things have changed...even when I had visited, there was signs of hurricane damage but nothing to the extent of carrying barges onto shore. anyway, thanks for posting this was interesting to watch!!

I got to spend nearly a full year in Biloxi. Keesler AFB FTW in that regard! I've visited the Beau Rivage and Boomtown but obviously I wasn't allowed to gamble underage.

What a way to wax nostalgia, thanks for the video. I won't gamble anymore because of personal reasons but I'll never forget how awesome Biloxi was!

beau rivage looks like a copy paste of the bellagio, from its fonts, to its building architecture, to the carpets on the casino floor. yes it is an MGM property so it makes sense but it would be nice to be designed based with biloxi and southern US in mind :) this is a superb video with so much detail!

The Palace Casino is on the backbay also, its north of hwy 90.

For anyone going to Beauvoir bring a fishing pole and you can fish the pond in the back there are some really nice Bass in there.You need to ask permission to fish but they are usually super nice about it.

I have been to New Orleans several times, but I stll haven't made it to Shreveport. I would also like to visit Baton Rouge.

Very well done. Being from Louisiana, I love seeing these riverboat casinos. I'm living in Ohio now so they are a bit tougher to come by. Have you ever made your way to Shreveport, LA? That's my hometown and there are 5 riverboat casinos on the Red River to choose from. Thanks for sharing your video.

The Casino hopper DOES stop at Treasure Bay Casino.

[americancasinoguide]

According to the official web site for the Casino Hopper bus at biloxibus(dot)com, the bus doesn't stop there.

[americancasinoguide]

Upon further research, here's what I learned: The Casino Hopper goes to all of the casinos at the east end of Biloxi, but it does not go to Treasure Bay. For that you have to take the Beach Hopper which also goes farther west to Island View, Hollywood & Silver Slipper. In all cases the hoppers are $1.20 and $0.65 for seniors with a Medicare Card.

This is a very nice commercial for the Beau Rivage. Is that the only one you visited?

[americancasinoguide]

All of the casinos in Biloxi and Gulfport are shown in the video. We were staying Beau Rivage and we had permission to shoot some areas of the property. Unfortunately, we did not have that access to other casino properties on the Gulf Coast. That is why most of the footage shows Beau Rivage. However, we did visit all of the other properties and we tried to shoot video where we could.
