Louisiana: Cypremort Point State Park



Cypremort Point State Park, Louisiana


In early spring, Cypremort Point State Park is a serene place to be.

There's virtually no one there.




It's on a spit between Vermilion Bay and Shark Bayou.

You can see the aftermath of mortal combat.

Lovely park rental cabins on tall posts, which have a view of the bay and the bayou, and their own boat slips.

Federal wetlands abut the park.

I thought this large specimen in the groundskeeper's cart was from a savage creature. In a sense, it was, but it wasn't fauna, it was flora. Some sort of palm.

Alas, no camping in this park. But it's an easy hour drive from Lafayette, so it makes for a good day trip if you're not going to rent a cabin.
