- PomommieBlack Mountain, NC259 contributionsTwo grandparents and a two-year old were “busy” for an hour and a half. We will return as many times as we are in Gulfport.

- Sarah GSoddy Daisy, TN9 contributionsThis museum is shockingly good. A gem on the MS Gulf Coast. Your child will love it, and you will be surprised at how much the trains excite you. Very clean and truly interactive. Your child can ride a train, play in a train playground, and play in a simulated train. Then look at all the model trains representing many eras of railroading.Written September 17, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- TravelingBum10United States6,308 contributionsBeautiful park! We drove there and parked. Walked around a bit. There’s a Ferry that takes you to Ship Island. There’s a lighthouse but I’m not sure you can go inside.

- MeowyMontgomery, AL520 contributionsI was here around lunchtime during a weekday and I was first surprised by how quiet it was. I am used to outlets being fairly crowded with few parking spots. The Gulfport outlets was fairly empty when I went, with a ton of parking free. I breezed around the stores easily as there were not many people there shopping. The outlets don't include a food court, but everything else you could need is here. Pricing was reasonable. It is easy to get to off of I-10. It gives the outlet experience without the crowds, so I recommend a trip there.Written March 12, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Diane SGulf Breeze, FL283 contributionsWe visited the Mississippi Aquarium on a sweltering August day. Fortunately, three buildings with tanks and displays are air conditioned and offer a chilly, relaxing sanctuary from the heat. In one there’s a remarkable walk-through clear tunnel to view fish. In another, there’s a three-level tank where you can view from the top (there’s a touch tank there) then spiral down to the bottom, where visitors can relax and view the fish. The viewing tanks are well labeled with plenty of hidden treasures. Check out the giant California Eel. Outdoors, due to the heat, the river otters and beavers were hiding out in the shade of the palmetto, though they peeked out once or twice. We missed the dolphin outdoor training session, but the dolphins were still a spectacle as they entertained themselves (and a few of us spectators) as they swam and tossed a football and a volleyball. Since we were there over the lunch hour there weren’t any chats or feeds going on from 11:45 to 1:30, so check the schedule before arriving. I was fascinated, however, watching a scuba diver clean one of the indoor tank tubes as fish swirled around her. Driving from Florida, we had a little trouble finding the entrance and drove around a few times, eventually using the paid parking garage which leads to entrance. It can be a very expensive visit if you do the add-ons, which we didn’t do. There’s no student pricing for those over the age of 13. For $2 military discount, you need to show an ID. It seems to be a great place for young kids, however, as there were plenty of toddlers in strollers and preschoolers relaxing on the bean bag chairs watching the giant wall tank of fish swimming. We’ll go back when they open the Penguin Project because we love watching penguins too.Written August 22, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Rockyx3Mississippi82 contributionsThe only reason I didn’t rate the park more is that the no longer offer military/veterans discount. Sad. The park is great, well staffed and everything we saw was clean including the water. Free drinks is a huge plus!Written June 29, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Stacey C8 contributionsFun little stop. Off the beaten path, just off I-10 in the Gulfport area. The world’s largest is actually in Illinois, but this is a close second.Written July 20, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
