About This Access Site
Shoreline Drive provides boat ramp access to Bayou Petit Caillou in Chauvin, located in Terrebonne Parish. This access point is situated at 7312 Shoreline Drive in the Cocodrie area and serves as a convenient launching location for kayakers, canoeists, and small motorboats exploring the bayou system. The site offers direct access to the shallow, slow-moving waters typical of Louisiana's coastal bayou environment.

This area is well-suited for paddlers looking to explore the Bayou Petit Caillou waterway and connected canal systems. The calm water conditions make it accessible for various skill levels, though paddlers should be familiar with tidal influences and navigation in shallow bayou terrain.

Check local conditions and tide schedules before launching, as water levels can fluctuate significantly.
