Passenger ferry to West Ship Island, a barrier island 12 miles off the Mississippi Coast. A very interesting place to visit features National Seashore and Fort Massachusetts. The view of the harbor from out on the water is great. Also got to see some dolphins on the way out.

"Mississippi's finest beaches are located on West Ship Island approximately 11 miles south of Gulfport and Biloxi and are accessible by Ship Island Excursions’ ferry boats, located in the Gulfport Small Craft Harbor. Watch for Atlantic Bottlenose dolphins during the enjoyable 50-minute ferry boat ride.
