There’s practically no shortage of hidden gems in the Magnolia State, and the waterfall at Little Bayou Pierre is definitely one of them. The cascading fall is hidden down a long, winding road near Port Gibson. Extremely secluded, most residents have no idea it even exists, which is a real shame because the waterfall is not only beautiful, it just so happens to create one of the best swimming holes in Mississippi. Take a look:
This secret waterfall is located in Claiborne County, just off Barland Road near the small town of Port Gibson.
