Top 5 Activities to Explore at the Gulf Islands National Seashore

We’re narrowing down the best activities and must-see attractions within the white sand, idyllic dunes and historic sites known as GINS.

According to the National Park Service, the 160-mile seashore (which includes Florida and Mississippi) is America’s largest national seashore. That means endless options for fun and exploration, but I’m limited by time (and word count) so here are my top five picks for you.

FIRST THINGS FIRST: Entrance fees.
- Adults: $10/person or $20/car (15 people and below)
- Annual pass: $40
THRIFTY ALERT: There are five days out of the year you can get free entry (January 20, April 18, August 25, September 26 and November 11)
