Coast Observer is completely dedicated to our business community. Created to give our local businesses a voice to all the tourists that visit and locals that live here, Coast Observer wants visitors to our Mississippi Gulf Coast as well as locals to enjoy everything that makes our coast so special. From promoting incredible dining in local restaurants and luxurious casinos to our world renowned local artists and museums Coast Observer showcases some of the best local talent of the past and present. Coast Observer also hosts a Best of the Best Readers Choice Award Ceremony called the Covey Awards to honor all those local businesses that have shined throughout the past year. Throughout the years it has grown to be such a special honor to all those who have become a Covey Award recipient.
