Boating around Biloxi

The Back Bay of Biloxi lies north of the peninsula, with marinas and boat launches. Deer Island is close to shore, and Ship Island, part of Gulf Islands National Seashore, is about 12 miles out.

The barrier islands, including Ship, Horn and Petit Bois, are part of Gulf Islands National Seashore, and their passes and beaches hold speckled trout, redfish and Spanish mackerel in summer. Biloxi’s small-craft harbor and the Back Bay marinas host charter boats and the shrimp fleet. Inshore water in the sound is shallow and can turn rough in a south wind.

Typical boats around Biloxi

Speckled trout and redfish in the sound and marshes, and offshore fishing beyond the islands.

Recommended setups

Flats skiffs and bay boats

For a skiff or bay boat that spends the day poling and creeping along the flats near Back Bay of Biloxi, trolling motor capacity is the number that matters. Measure your current batteries (group size, voltage and how many) before you order. If you stay with lead-acid, Group 31 deep-cycle batteries give the most runtime per battery; if you move to lithium, one 36V battery wired for your motor makes the system simpler and lighter.

Offshore center consoles

Offshore boats depend on their batteries more than any other boat on Mississippi Sound: radar, sonar, chartplotters, livewells and VHF all draw power while drifting over a ledge. Size your house battery for a full day of electronics with the engines off, and keep it isolated from the cranking batteries with a switch or combiner. A multi-bank onboard charger keeps every battery topped up at the dock.

Pontoons and party barges

Most pontoons on Mississippi Sound run a single 12V battery for the engine, stereo, lights and maybe a small trolling motor. That works until the music runs through a long afternoon at anchor. A dual-purpose battery, AGM or lithium, handles both cranking and accessory loads better, and a second battery on a switch keeps starting power in reserve.

Climate, storage and winterizing in Biloxi

Salt air and heat are tough on batteries. Choose sealed AGM or lithium.

Hurricane season runs from June through November. Before a storm, charge and disconnect batteries, and if you haul out, store small lithium batteries indoors.

The northern Gulf Coast has long, hot summers and mild winters, with salt air and humidity year round. Heat is the main battery killer, so keep batteries charged and ventilated. Sealed AGM or lithium batteries are a good fit for boats that live in the water or on lifts.
