The beach has showers, bathrooms, and shaded areas. The water is a great temperature, clear, and shallow enough for young kids to enjoy. My daughters and I ventured out quite far, with our youngest being 5 and our oldest 11. It's a fun way to spend the day. A tip: bring a tent (or two) to take a break from the sun.
The beach has been closed for several years due to storm damage, with no bathrooms or pier access available. Despite federal funding being allocated over a year ago, no progress has been made on repairs. The Waveland business community should advocate for action to be taken, as this situation is detrimental to tourism.
