Pet friendly camping near Biloxi, Mississippi centers primarily around the coastal areas along Highway 90 and inland waterways. The region maintains a humid subtropical climate with mild winters where temperatures rarely drop below 40°F and hot summers that typically reach 90°F. Most campgrounds in the area sit at near sea level elevation with limestone or concrete pads that provide stable surfaces during occasional coastal storms.
What to do
Beach access from camp: Cajun RV Park sits directly across from Biloxi Beach, making it convenient for campers with pets. "We stayed for 2 days. It's a great spot if you want to walk to the beach or cruise down the strip. Everyone in town was friendly to us," notes J M.
Waterfront activities: Gulf Beach RV Resort provides beach access within walking distance. "The real draw is the beach just across the street, and the casinos down the road. Keesler AFB is just locks away," explains Tod S., highlighting the proximity to multiple attractions.
Nature trails exploration: Visitors to Davis Bayou Campground can enjoy wildlife viewing on marked paths. "There's plenty of walking trails, and you can check out the gator alley area where you'll typically see at least one gator," shares Kaylin R., noting that "it's far enough in the woods to where you don't hear much of the city traffic."
What campers like
Convenient beach proximity: Many campers appreciate the short distance to Gulf waters. "You can walk a block to the beach, bring a wagon to haul your beach gear or drive as there is parking at the beach," explains RICK V. about Gulf Beach RV Resort.
Clean facilities: Majestic Oaks RV Resort receives consistent praise for maintenance standards. "Bath room/showers we some of the best I have seen! Pool was pretty with plenty of chairs," notes robin F., adding there are "nice places to walk a dog and even a place to let them run."
Group camping options: Davis Bayou offers dedicated group sites. "We camped in the group campsite. The bathrooms were a short walk away but were very clean & nice. There were plenty of trails, fishing areas & lots to explore and see," reports Kimsey C.
What you should know
Size limitations: Some campgrounds have tight spacing between sites. "The spaces are quite small and close to one another. Water and electric are included," explains Joseph S. about Davis Bayou Campground, though he adds they "definitely recommend and will come back."
Environmental noise: Multiple campgrounds experience periodic noise from nearby attractions or transportation. "The only con is the go cart track next door can be loud so get a site away from it," advises Jessica R. about Cajun RV Park.
Weather considerations: Camp David RV River Resort offers water activities with weather-dependent conditions. "I was able to use my kayak and fish on the river," notes Nick N., who found the location provided "scenic views" despite some construction at the time of his visit.
Tips for camping with families

Wildlife viewing opportunities: Deer Island Dispersed Camping provides unique coastal experiences. "It's less than a half-mile off the coast, but far enough away to be left alone. Great paddling, quiet camping, lots of birds," reports Sami H., though noting there can be "a lot of litter along the shores."
Recreational facilities: Several campgrounds feature dedicated play areas. "We have a great park here and I highly recommend it," notes Brandon D. about Biloxi Bay RV Resort's recreational amenities.
Tips from RVers
Site selection strategy: Position matters at most Biloxi area campgrounds. "We were in the new section. Spots are close together with really no place to park tow vehicle without sticking out in the road," explains RICK V. about Gulf Beach RV Resort, though praising the "good 50 amp with sewer."
Off-base convenience: Keesler AFB FamCamp offers military camping with easy access. "This campground is located outside the gates and next door to a beautiful park that has fishing, disc golf, and a splash pad playground for the kids," advises Mi W.
Level sites: Many coastal campgrounds maintain relatively level pads. "Our spot 52 was fairly level," notes Lisa M. about Davis Bayou Campground, adding that "spots were nicely spaced apart and quite a few had good shade."
