Grand Isle Tent Camping

I was planning to bring my kayaks down to GI this weekend and camp at the state park. I just noticed that its still closed from Ida.
Anyone know of other places to camp in and around Grand Isle? Maybe even an RV park that would let me pitch a tent?

All the Messicans tent camp at the west end state park.

You could pitch a tent anywhere on the beach. Just put it in the grass area so the tractor can sweep the beach

FYI . Camping in Grand Isle holds the record for the most mosquitos I have ever seen in one place. It hasn’t gotten cold enough to knock them down. Never again. Good luck homeboy.

Just find a crossover and pitch it there. You should be fine.

I have never seen the law stating you can't camp on the island. There are SPOTS you can't camp at listed in the Grand Isle ordinances but the beach is never mentioned. 99% chance nobody is going to bother you. Hell people camp on the piers and nobody makes them move.

There is a town ordinance that prohibits overnight beach camping. Bridgeside should have some rooms available, if not try the Herons Nest.

It would be nice to get the state park up and running. That really was a good deal…….

You'll likely not be bothered if you camp on the beach. I've never seen the ordinance that says you can't do it, but I've never heard someone say you can.
Sharkys rentals allows tent camping. Contact them, I'm sure it's worth the money to have a place to SSS. I assume they have facilities available, not sure.

I just called Bridge Side. They don’t allow camping on the beach.
Sharky’s does have tent spots but not on the beach.
Sorta makes you think that beach camping on GI was only allowed at the State Park.

One of the most miserable nights of my life was tent camping on fourchon beach in July. 100 degrees at dusk Sand all in the tent and the damn mosquitoes my god Must have been 40 in the tent Wake up hungover to the smell of rotting seafood all over
