Louisiana has 21 beautiful state parks peppered throughout the state and visiting each one should be on every Louisianian’s bucket list. This underrated state park might fly under the radar, but it’s absolutely worth a road trip because, from the moment you drive up, you’ll feel like you’ve slipped away to a tropical island.
Nestled on the shores of the Vermilion Bay, Cypremort Point is one of the few locations near the Gulf of Mexico that can be reached by car.
Located between Grand Isle and Cameron, this 185-acre state park is the perfect spot for anyone looking to spend some time outdoors. You'll feel like you're on a tropical isle from the moment you pull up.
Cypremort Point State Park is a fisherman’s paradise. There's a boat launch located just outside the park for anyone looking to fish deeper waters from the Bay or even head out to the Gulf.
One of the best parts about this underrated state park are the sunsets. They might just be the most beautiful in the state. Imagine sitting on the beach and watching the sun set over the Vermilion Bay, illuminating the sky with hues of oranges and reds that bounce off the water just perfectly.
