Escatawpa takes its name from the Escatawpa River, which meets the Pascagoula River at Moss Point. A post office called Escatawpa was established in 1885, the same year the L. N. Dantzler Lumber Company opened a sawmill on the Escatawpa, part of the lumber boom that at its peak supported as many as nine sawmills in the Moss Point area.
The river remained the center of local industry for the next century. A municipal swimming pool on the Escatawpa operated from 1946 into the early 1960s, Omega Protein began processing menhaden on the river in the 1950s, and Moss Point Marine opened a shipyard in Escatawpa in 1978. In 1990 the original center of Escatawpa was annexed by the city of Moss Point, just to the south, and the unincorporated area north of the city now makes up the Escatawpa census-designated place. The community was devastated by Hurricane Katrina on August 29, 2005. Escatawpa is also known as the hometown of the rock band 3 Doors Down.
