DISCOVER THE AREA

Mississippi's Gulf Coast is home not only to fun in the sun but to higher learning, too. Our local community college, the Mississippi Gulf Coast Bulldogs, has several campuses and facilities in the area. And the University of Southern Mississippi's Gulf Park campus is just a mile and a half down the road, right here on the beach in Long Beach. Blue Cliff College offers technical and career training in Gulfport.

Whether you're in town touring campuses or want to check out the landmark Friendship Oak, these facilities are important parts of our community. Students come from all over the world to study on the Mississippi Gulf Coast.
