With its out-of-the-way location on the beach in Hancock County, close to the Louisiana state line, and its lack of a hotel, the Silver Slipper is a casino that attracts many locals and New Orleanians. There are 1,000 slot machines and 26 table games in the casino, as well as three restaurants. The Blue Bayou restaurant overlooks the Bay of St. Louis and provides stunning views as well as early-bird dinner specials. Open daily 24 hours. 5000 S. Beach Blvd., Bay St. Louis.
