Area Hot Spots

When you choose to stay at Belle Fontaine Beach you are just minutes from activities yet secluded enough to enjoy the peace and quiet this private peninsula provides. You won't have to fight traffic or fight for a spot on the beach because Belle Fontaine Beach is the only natural beach along the Mississippi coast. Enjoy the sea oats, pelicans, sea gulls, blue herons and other varieties of birds that call this their home. Keep an eye out for a porpoise who might swim by.
