St. Martin, MS

St. Martin sits along the calm waters of the Back Bay of Biloxi in western Jackson County, tucked neatly between D'Iberville and Ocean Springs. With around 8,000 residents, it offers a laid-back coastal setting shaped by its roots as a historic fishing and farming settlement on the Point St. Martin peninsula. Life here still revolves around the water, with winding bayous, quiet residential streets, and scenic waterfront views that give the community an easygoing charm.

Residents can head into Biloxi for work and entertainment, spend an evening browsing the shops in downtown Ocean Springs, or launch a boat into the bay for the afternoon. It is a peaceful, convenient spot for anyone looking for relaxed coastal living close to everything the Gulf Coast has to offer.
