The snowbird season is here, and the Mississippi Gulf Coast is alive and crowded with snowbirds who have landed.
For a brief time, these snowbirds can escape winter in the region and call it their home as well, according to a report.
With tourism in the region being an all-year-round activity, one sure sign is that RV parks are crowded.
The majority of park guests are snowbirds. It’s something that Tyler Moffett, owner of Southern Comfort Camping Resort in Biloxi, counts on.
“It’s very important to us,” he said. “It’s very vital every year. We count on these return customers. Many of these people coming here for 20-plus years, and it’s a great influx every year. It’s kind of downtime, not having so many summer holidays, vacations. So, we really do count on their business every year.”
The snowbirds mentioned in the report visit the Coast to relax at the beach.
They usually arrive around December and typically return home around April.
