Things to Do

Saltwater fishing outfitters in Chauvin and neighboring Cocodrie will take you out for a day of unforgettable casting — and almost assuredly, catching — in the abundant waters that surround the town. A decidedly different cultural attraction also awaits visitors to the fishing village. Named simply the Chauvin Sculpture Garden, this assemblage of religious art, crafted in concrete, is a monumental folk art masterpiece that has been attracting visitors for decades.

Places to Stay

To make the most of your stay, consider Grand Bayou Noir, A Chateau on the Bayou and Bouverans Bed and Breakfast. 

Food

Savor a plate of CoCo Marina’s famous Wine Island shrimp, or a burger grilled to perfection at Dugey’s Deli. 

Getting There

It's easy to navigate Chauvin — especially since the city is just over an hour from New Orleans. If you're flying into town, rent a car, hail a taxi or book a rideshare from the Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport.
