LeMoyne Sieur d’Iberville first arrived in south MS in 1699 while searching for the mouth of the Mississippi River. As a Canadian naval hero, Iberville was sent by French King Louis XIV to establish French settlements and outposts in the lower Mississippi Valley. He established Ft. Maurepas and many other outposts throughout the region after befriending the local Indians who led him to the river’s mouth. Many settlements were established all along the south MS coastline as a result of d’Iberville’s influence and leadership. The city of D’Iberville is now proud of its rich culture and history.

D’Iberville was devastated, like much of south MS, when Hurricane Katrina made landfall August 29th, 2005. Besides being hit with heavy winds, a large portion of the city was inundated by the hurricane’s tremendous storm surge. This forever changed the shore-scape of this historic city. It has taken quite a few years, but major infrastructure projects have now been completed and upgraded. The building codes and elevation requirements have since been enhanced. Now exists a fresh and clean slate of appreciable real estate not more than 5 minutes from Biloxi’s Casino Row and Keesler Air Force Base. Rentals and waterfront properties can now be bought at bargain prices.
