St. Martin Parish, Louisiana

St. Martin Parish sits in the heart of Cajun Country in south-central Louisiana. It’s a bit of an oddball for geography with two pieces. Oddly enough, it’s divided by Iberia Parish.
This place is all about good food, great music, and even better people. You’ll find it between Lafayette and Baton Rouge, with a chunk of the Atchafalaya Basin calling it home.
Locals love to debate that one over a cold beer. Speaking of tastes, Breaux Bridge is known as the “Crawfish Capital of the World”. The parish has some of the best kayaking and fishing spots in the state. Just watch out for gators.
