Join the Gulfport Historical Society as they take a stroll through history in Gulfport. The tour examines the creation of this small seaside hamlet; the tour guides — all Gulfport locals with a penchant for history and storytelling — share the town's history and stories with the group. The tour starts at the Gulfport History Museum where you can take a peek at some of their historic photos.
Please note that this event is on our "summer schedule"--from May through September, we'll be offering walking tours every third Thursday at 7pm. Tour free for Gulfport Historical Society members. All others pay $10 per person. We have a water cooler at the museum; please bring your refillable bottle to fill up before the tour. These tours sell out, so advance ticket purchase is highly suggested. Members should pre-register to ensure they have a spot. We don't love turning people away, but when the group gets too large it's hard for everyone to hear our tour guides.
Please note: Our tour guides are all volunteer; while it's optional, they do appreciate tips.
Thanks to the Gulfport Merchants Chamber for co-hosting this tour!
