There are 21 state parks in Louisiana, but few can hold a candle to Cypremort Point State Park when it comes to scenery. Now, we love all of the Louisiana state parks, and each one of them offers truly stunning scenery, but while most other state parks feature ancient oaks and mesmerizing cypress trees, the sights you’ll stumble into at Cypremort are like no other. You may even think you’ve been transported to the beach! Let’s explore one of the best state parks in Louisiana!

Down at the end of Highway 319, Cypremort Point State Park will be waiting for you.

It's fairly remote, so it's not exactly a state park you just stumble across accidentally. We promise the drive "to the end of the earth" is worth it.
Clocking in at 185 acres, it's not the smallest state park in Louisiana, but it's far from the largest, so we think it's the perfect size for a day or two of exploring.

Nestled along the shores of Vermilion Bay, Cypremort Point State Park offers some of the best fishing around.

You'll also have access to the deeper Gulf waters, too. The bay is also a popular spot for sailing!
There are even boat slips for you to dock your boat in between epic fishing adventures.
