Best Times to Visit Biloxi
The best time to visit Biloxi is from November to April, when the city's room rates are cheaper and the weather cools off.

The city becomes a ghost town starting in late August and continuing into the shoulder months of September and October, when hurricane season can wreak havoc on the city.
