Long Beach

Long Beach sits on Mississippi Sound in Mississippi, United States, where a broad sandy shoreline follows the state’s Gulf Coast. The city developed as a coastal resort community and today forms part of the continuous urban strip between Pass Christian and Gulfport. At the University of Southern Mississippi’s Gulf Park campus, the Friendship Oak—a live oak associated with the former Gulf Park College—is among Long Beach’s best-known landmarks. Beach Boulevard follows the waterfront, while the sound’s sheltered waters and offshore barrier islands place the city within the northern Gulf of Mexico’s coastal setting.
