About Kayaking Heaven

Kayaking Heaven is a local’s guide to paddling the swamps, bayous, and waterways around New Orleans. The launch spots, the wildlife, the best months to go, and which guided trips are worth your money.

We’re paddlers first. Everything on this site comes from time actually spent on the water in the Manchac land bridge, the Honey Island Swamp, and the Pearl River system, not from a brochure. Where we compare guided tours, we link every operator so you can do your own homework.

Questions, corrections, or a spot you think we should cover? Get in touch through the contact form and a real person will answer.
