The Coast's many casinos are bigger and more luxurious than ever and with the change to land-based casinos, which was approved by the legislature shortly after Katrina, all of the casino resorts are becoming more fun and elaborate complete with the excitement that only a Mississippi Coast casino vacation can be. More casinos are coming. Under construction is the New Margaritaville Resort and Casino and Bacaran Bay.

the Coast recover. While there has been considerable damage from Katrina,
