beach boulevard

The nearby pier and bay views. Good restaurants, pubs and interesting shops. Parking is available in the area. The sunsets are amazing!

There an artsy vibe on Beach Blvd in Gulfport. We ate lunch in the courtyard of Mangia Gourmet, which offers live music as well as many gluten free and vegan dishes. We walked the few blocks from that restaurant down to the beach, passing several colorful shops and art galleries. Near the beach, we sat on a bench and overheard live music from one of the restaurants across the street. A refreshingly non-commercial neighborhood; it's nice to see art for sale rather than tacky souvenirs.

Gulfports' Beach Boulevard is a must see/do when visiting the west/central part of FL. I've been told that it's still the was FL used to be before becoming so "touristy". Beach Boulevard is the main street in the downtown area of Gulfport. We were just there yesterday for their weekly Fresh Market (on Tuesdays from 9 a.m. to 2 or 3 p.m.) The market is less of a farmers market and more of an artisans market, but there are still several booths selling vegetables and other foods. Any day is a treat to visit this area because of the unique shops, great restaurants, and friendly residents!

Friday night in Gulfport, Had just enjoyed a lovely dinner, went to Domain and made a $150 purchase, walked into the Beach Bazaar at 8:52, discovered they close at 9:00. Quickly making our way through looking for specific item, sales person on duty started shutting off lights as soon as we walked in, repeatedly saying we close at 9:00. We are locals, we purchase from you off season, we were home by 9:13 instead of making a purchase, we were basically "kicked out" of the store. Very poor customer service. I'm disappointed in the way we were treated by 'salesperson'. She needs to take some customer service classes.

Quaint little town with many restaurants, antique shops. Also a beach on the bay with benches, bathrooms. Free parking. Parks and homes in area. A nice place to walk around and poke in little shops and restaurants.

lots of shops and food stops. friendly people and lots of atmosphere. appears to be very dog friendly. We are going to enjoy this town

Clean and friendly. But not much length to the beach...tho the skimmers, godwits, and pelicans are fun to watch. A friendly and easy place to be. Playground seems popular with children.

And watch the sunset - stop a while and appreciate the show that nature provides. Watch the birds at the shoreline and the kids on the volleyball court. It is so nice to see so many people enjoying the simple things life has to offer.

Old Florida style house with many little shops or restaurant Worsted the visit even with young kids It is really a charming area

First, there's a small, charming, uncluttered and inviting beach; then there's a nice street with plenty of FREE parking and across that street are rows of different restaurants offering the world of food. Stroll, walk or run -its a laid back treat. Most everyone says hello, so say hello back.

Gulfport's Beach Boulevard is the main street leading into the downtown area, as well as the staging area for numerous festivals and weekly Fresh Markets (on Tuesdays from 9 a.m. to 2 or 3 p.m.) I frequently take friends and visitors to this area because I enjoy shopping and eating there. The market is less of a farmers market and more of an artisans market, but there are still several booths selling vegetables and other foods.

There are great shops and boutiques and galleries along Beach Blvd. We got to eat at 2 restaurants while we were in town, wish we had time for more. There are so many good ones, we'll just have to go back to Gulfport soon!

Something for everyone from early morn till night. Did some shopping at the outside venders, sampled some drinks and food, listened to music and enjoyed watching the multitude of people out and about enjoying the 4th of July activities. My husband and I sat a spell on the pier - what a delightful way to spend the day. Tonight - the finale - fireworks Gulfport style !

just moved here and took a stroll Saturday eve. lots of stores, restaurants, and well-people. Can't wait to come back during the day when most are open.

What a great way to pull a community together. The 1st Friday and the 3rd Saturday of every month, street vendors sell their wares, musicians play in different parts of the street, places stay open for shopping and eating - an outdoor extravaganza ! Loved it , look forward to the next one.
