The Atchafalaya River Basin is an area unique to south Louisiana. Full of cypress trees, egrets, bass, alligators, and so much more, the swamp has a lot to offer for anyone, whether they are just passing through or a local who cherishes their environment (which all locals here do.)
Their are several swamp tours that are available year-round to take to to this beautiful place. You can feel the Cajun roots when you're out there, and you'll have no doubts why the Cajuns hold on to their culture so tightly. Experience the beautiful swamps of Louisiana, no where in the world is like it.
