More fun things to do in Louisiana February 14, 2023 Chris Muras What are some fun things to do in Louisiana with families? Louisiana is well known for its rum tours, Mardi Gras celebrations, and smokey blues bars, but what are some fun things to do in Louisiana with families? Here are a few family-friendly activities you can enjoy in Louisiana:

Visit the Audubon Insectarium: If you love creepy crawlies you’ll love the bugs and butterflies at this fun exploratory museum on Canal Street in New Orleans. Baton Rouge Zoo: Not only does the Baton Rouge Zoo have all of the cool animals you love but you can explore rock gardens, a koi pond, the KidsZoo, the Cypress Bayou Railroad, and the Safari Playground. Children’s Museum of Lake Charles: Get your science on in this 21,000-square-foot interactive science museum in downtown Lake Charles, Louisiana. With over 45 exhibits there is so much to see and do, all while learning just as much as you are having fun.

  Where is the best camping in Louisiana? Camping in Louisiana is all about enjoying the beautiful outdoors with family, friends, and even your faithful furry pets. Here are a few of the best places to go camping in Louisiana:

Lake Claiborne State Park, Homer, LA: This campground has easy access to some of the best fishing in Louisiana on the 6,400-acre Lake Claiborne. Of course, there is plenty of hiking, biking, and even disc golf to enjoy as well. Jimmie Davis State Park, Chatham, LA: More beautiful lakes, towering pine trees, and hiking trails await at Jimmie Davis. Enjoy a stay at a log cabin tucked away in the middle of the forest surrounded by wildlife. Tickfaw State Park, Springfield, LA: For a whole new kind of camping experience, Tickfaw State Park is a blend of cypress and tupelo swampland, a pine and hardwood forest, and scenic views of the Tickfaw River. Listen to the unique sounds of Louisiana swampland from the comfort of your cabin’s porch. And be sure to walk the cool boardwalk trail through the forest and swamp.
