FORT MASSACHUSETTS Harrison Co. On the west end of Ship Island, 12 miles offshore from Gulfport. This class C masonry Civil War-era fort is only accessible by boat. It was built between 1859 and 1866, and occupied by Confederate troops. It was never fully garrisoned, and was finally abandoned by the army in 1900.
