1. BEST COASTAL SMALL TOWN? READERS SELECT OCEAN SPRINGS, MISSISSIPPI

Known as the "City of Discovery," the historic coastal town of Ocean Springs is the perfect place for visitors to relax and enjoy. After exploring downtown with its quaint cottage-like Main Street, artistic flair, and small-town appeal, head to the beach for a day in the sun. Stroll along miles of soft white sand, and find more tranquil stretches of beach for romantic walks or moonlight picnics. Take a boat cruise and enjoy dinner and a magnificent sunset, or paddleboard, kayak or canoe along river bayous and through constantly developing natural marshlands.

2. BAY SAINT LOUIS, MISSISSIPPI

The quaint seaside town of Bay St. Louis calls itself, "a place apart," and it's easy to see why. The friendly community has everything you'd want from a small town seaside escape — a store-lined Main Street, restaurants serving fresh Gulf seafood, museums and an 8.5-mile canoe and kayak trail.
