Crab Festival is sponsored by the Our Lady of the
Gulf Catholic Church in Bay St. Louis, Mississippi. What started out as
a church fair has evolved to an event that attracts visitors from around
the Gulf Coast areas.
Much of it is under the shade of giant oak trees, but tents and
pavilions are set up on the grounds. Families
known for their
special dishes prepare most of the food for the event.
Specialities and seafood of all kinds
are available along with standard fare!
