The Honey Island Swamp features over 70,000 acres of untouched natural beauty. In fact, it’s one of the least-altered river swamps in the United States and considered to be one of the most pristine swamplands in the country. If you’ve never explored this emerald oasis, you’re in for a real treat. While airboats and pontoon boats are the most popular avenue to explore the swamp, kayaking offers you much more freedom and space. Let’s check it out.
There’s nothing better than carving out some time to spend in nature. Luckily, Louisiana has plenty of beautiful scenery you can enjoy.
