Located in the southernmost corner of Mississippi is a relaxed little town with gorgeous nature views and curated conservatories. If you’re itching to take your Nissan Rogue Sport for a scenic drive, we’ve created a list of the best views near Picayune, MS. Stop off, enjoy the sights and activities at each spot, and learn more about the history of this lovely, laid-back town.

The Crosby Arboretum

The Crosby Arboretum is the number one native plant conservatory in the Southeast. Suppose you want to see how the three distinct habitats of Picayune interact. In that case, we recommend taking the afternoon to stroll through the Savanna, Woodland, and Aquatic exhibits, where you can learn about the diversity of plant and animal life in each. Take a stroll from Pinecote Pavilion to the wooden bridges around the lake to soak up the loveliest views.

Also featured in the nursery are the plants native to the Pearl River Drainage Basin, protected and preserved by the Crosby foundation. The foundation aims to educate locals and tourists about their environment, and the arboretum offers fantastic environmental and botanical research opportunities. There are also scientific, cultural, and recreational programs you can join.

The Crosby Commons

The Crosby Commons is a picturesque spot to enjoy a picnic with friends or some solitary tranquility. The large park is liberally dotted with benches for you to sit and enjoy the greenery, or if you’re feeling energetic, you can take a stroll on the walking track, which is almost half a mile long. The park also features an outdoor theater stage, so look out for upcoming events that might be fun for you and your family.

Picayune Paradise

Who knew Picayune had a private beach? This aptly named spot is a beautiful and fun place to spend a day, and you’ll love the views on the drive there. Relax in the shade of the cozy Pavilion, swim in the blue waters, or challenge your partner to a game of cornhole. Kiddies will love splashing into the pool from the diving board or drifting around in their own tropical paradise on one of the floaties.

Paddleboats are available to take out, but if you prefer to stay on land, you can play a game of volleyball or relax in a deck chair on the beach. Note that Picayune Paradise needs to be booked beforehand, as it does not hold regular business hours.
