Davis
Bayou the "Nature's Way Trail"
The Davis Bayou area has a nature trail that starts on the road to the
Davis Bayou Campground and Boat Ramp. Enjoy the sights, sounds and scents
of Mississippi's natural coastline. This wild and forested area adjacent
to a salt marsh is fast becoming a rare and exceptional place. By hiking
the Nature's Way Trail you will have the opportunity to pause, sense and
enjoy those pleasures which were once common on the Mississippi Gulf Coast.
Ship
Island
This barrier island, like the others here on the gulf coast, is home to
an amazing variety of plant and animal life. Taking a few moments to explore
shells, bones, eggs, mysteries and legends lying on display before you
can be a memorable experience.
For a beachwalk
on Ship Island, head west from either end of the boardwalk along north
or south beach to the west tip of the island. The walk, past dunes, marshes
and surf, lasts about one-and-a-half hours. Walk only on boardwalk or
beach. Walking on sand dunes destroys plants which hold the island together.
Remember, plants and animals are protected. Bring water, hat, sunscreen,
and sunglasses for your protection.
