When many Americans think of Louisiana, they think jazz music and great food, but Louisiana is also nicknamed the Sportsman's Paradise for a reason: the geographical array of natural resources makes it a haven for outdoor enthusiasts.
Louisiana is organized into five separate regions, with each offering different boating and fishing opportunities. The Louisiana Department of Wildlife & Fisheries operates Wildlife Management Areas across the state. These parks provide visitors with many water amenities, including boat launches and fishing piers and many are wheelchair accessible.
