re: Cocodrie vs. Grand Isle--where would you rather a camp? best fishing?

Grand isle for me. Much better for a family spot as everyone has said. You have the beach, a snowball stand, golf carts riding everywhere, various restaurants and bars and just a cool vibe to me. Plus great fishing. They both have great fishing but cocodrie doesn't have as much extra things to do like grand isle. And a lot of good road side, surf, and bridge fishing as well, so even if you don't have a boat you can catch fish/crabs. Much closer to offshore fishing and still not far at all to good marsh fishing. That may be biggest drawback is not as much accessible marsh close by but it's not all that far away either.

But if you don't have a family that would ever want to go, and you need to be fishing in the marsh in less than a 5 minute boat ride than maybe cocodrie is a better option.
