Gulfport's fishing pier is located at the intersection of 54th Street South and Shore Boulevard. The first in a series of piers was built in 1907. The latest pier was recently renovated, and a dedication to Bert and Walter Williams was held in June 2001. Bert and Walter Williams, a father and son, were instrumental in the development of Gulfport; serving as City officials for a combined tenure of over twenty-seven years.
