Mississippi Gulf Coast - Where's the BEACH

More 100+ things to do while visiting Woodridge -
Where's the beach?  Does New Orleans have a beach?  We are near the coast and many think that New Orleans sits on the Gulf but it is not the case.  They do have the lake front but officially no swimming allowed at Pontchartrain beach.  The good news is that the Mississippi Gulf Coast is just a short drive from Woodridge so you can make day trips to both the beach and New Orleans without packing your bag!

The closest beach is at Bay St. Louis but there is an aprox 30 mile span of beach from there through Ocean Springs so if one area is just too crowded or commercialized, just drive a bit and you should find some areas more to your liking.  Lots of parking right off the hwy, more parking near areas with public restrooms.
