Take in the natural beauty of the Cajun Coast with a swamp tour or a peaceful paddle along one of our scenic bayou trails. The region’s tranquil waterways wind through moss-draped cypress trees and wetlands rich with wildlife. Whether you’re a first-time paddler or a seasoned adventurer, this is your chance to truly connect with Louisiana’s wild side in a way that’s both calming and awe-inspiring.
History is alive and well on the Cajun Coast, and there’s no better time to explore it. Visit the Berwick Heritage Museum, the Chitimacha Museum, or the Wedell-Williams Aviation and Cypress Sawmill Museum to discover the region’s cultural legacy. Then, climb aboard MR. CHARLIE in Morgan City—the world’s only authentic offshore drilling rig open to the public. This National Historic Landmark offers a rare, immersive look at the oil industry, complete with real-life rig stories and fascinating exhibits that bridge past and present.
