baton rouge to grand isle..anything i need to know?

One thing will never change, don't speed anywhere near Golden Meadow.

Toll bridge is easier, take it.

I didn't see a single Golden Meadow cop during the three days I was there earlier this week.

Take the shortcut from Hwy 1 and go 308.

this.

stay on 308 until you can get to the beginning of 3235. I believe you cross the draw bridge right at the intracostal.

Like others stated, don't speed through Golden Meadow.

By don't speed, they mean not even one over. Your best bet is going a couple under.

get on 3235 in Larose.

Thats the town I was thinking of.

Get off 308 onto LA 1 right before Larose. Once you cross the intracostal you take the left hand turn at the bottom of the bridge. Its pretty much a U-turn. Take a left at the stop sign, and the take a left on 3235 about a quarter mile down.

I don't know a whole lot of road numbers, just learned from repetition.

ETA: I also pay the toll on my way out of town. Golden Meadow has some new building off the road that you can pay cash at. But you can pay the toll at pretty much any marina from Leeville to Grand Isle. The only problem with those is they only take card.

I did the google maps and copy and pasted the route i take. This may be more helpful than what was previously posted.
