Beau Rivage's Fixed Location and Distances

Beau Rivage's Fixed Position and the Distance Problem

The venue sits at 30.392413 latitude and -88.891915 longitude in Biloxi, Mississippi. The nearest documented straight-line reference point is Biloxi itself at 2.5 miles. That figure is great-circle, not road distance.

Road travel always runs longer than a straight line. Water, highways that follow the coast, and the absence of a direct route all add miles. This article does not publish driving mileage or travel time for any pairing.

Where the Venue Sits

Beau Rivage is in Biloxi, Mississippi, on the Gulf Coast. The coordinates place it in the southeastern part of the state, close to the water. Biloxi is the nearest documented city reference, 2.5 miles straight-line from the venue.

The property carries 1,740 hotel rooms according to publicly published reference sources. Ownership is listed as Vici Properties. Figures like room counts are revised as properties are rebuilt and expanded, so treat them as a documented point in time rather than today's condition.

Straight-Line Distances to Reference Points

Every figure below is a great-circle measurement between documented coordinates. None of these numbers represent road miles, and none should be read as a travel time.

Why Straight-Line and Road Distance Diverge

A great-circle line ignores terrain, water, and the road network. The Gulf Coast is cut by bays, rivers, and marshland. A straight line from Beau Rivage to New Orleans crosses water and wetlands that no passenger road follows directly.

State borders add another layer. A route from Biloxi to Houston crosses Louisiana and enters Texas through a limited set of bridge and interstate corridors. The road must bend toward those crossings, while the straight-line figure does not.

Even short pairs diverge. Biloxi sits 2.5 miles straight-line from the venue, but the actual drive depends on which side of the bay the route takes and which bridge is open. The measurement you can rely on is the coordinate distance, not an inferred drive.

What the Coordinates Support About the Region

The latitude places the venue in the southern tier of Mississippi, near the Gulf of Mexico. The longitude places it east of the Louisiana state line and west of the Alabama state line. New Orleans lies to the southwest, Mobile to the east, and Jackson to the north, though this article only documents the pairs listed above.

The venue's position is fixed. A reader's starting point is not. If a question uses "from me" or "from my location," that reference point does not exist in any documented form. The correct move is to take the venue's coordinates, take your own coordinates, and measure the great-circle distance yourself, or use a mapping tool for road distance.

What to Confirm Before You Go

Road distance and travel time change with construction, bridge status, and the route a mapping tool selects. Confirm both on the day of travel through a current mapping service.

Hotel room availability and the current room count are separate matters. The 1,740-room figure is a documented historical count. The property's own booking page carries the current inventory and any room category changes.

Ownership and operating arrangements can shift through sales and rebrands. Vici Properties is the documented owner in the reference sources used here. The venue's own published materials carry the current operating entity and any updated branding.

FAQ

Does Beau Rivage allow taping slot machines?

This article does not hold a documented policy on photography or recording at Beau Rivage. Casino floor recording rules are set by the property and can change. The venue's guest services or published floor policies are the authoritative channel for that question.

How far is Beau Rivage from New Orleans?

The documented straight-line distance is 76.5 miles. That is a great-circle measurement, not a road figure. The actual drive crosses water and wetlands and runs longer. Check a current mapping service for road distance and travel time.

What is the closest documented city to Beau Rivage?

Biloxi is the closest documented reference point at 2.5 miles straight-line. Gulfport follows at 11.0 miles. Both figures are great-circle measurements between fixed coordinates, not driving distances.
