Birdwatchers and nature fans, mark your calendars!

The Grand Isle Migratory Bird Celebration is coming very soon. This year’s celebration is going to be held Friday to Sunday, April 20-22, throughout the town of Grand Isle.

 

“After a long flight across the Gulf of Mexico, migrating birds flock to Grand Isle to rest after their difficult journey. The island has become one of the best places in the world to see the variety of species flying north,” said Grand Isle Mayor David Camardelle. “The Migratory Bird Festival not only celebrates their arrival but provides easy viewing access to visitors.”

A beautiful, annual Grand Isle tradition celebrating nature

Every Spring, visitors from all over converge in Grand Isle, Louisiana for an incredible annual event.

The Grand Isle Migratory Bird Celebration had its start back in 1998 as part of an effort to protect and preserve undeveloped live oak ridges, (only 10% of the habitats that once were on Grand Isle remain).

Grand Isle happens to be a vital stopover for songbirds as they make their migration journeys across the Gulf of Mexico. This “rest stop” makes for an outstanding event that’s very family-friendly.

Bring the whole gang along for all manner of fun events, including:</br clear=right>

Heading to Grand Isle, Louisiana for the ultimate fishing trip? Not yet a pro?

No worries, you can engage a fishing charter that can get you fishing like a seasoned fisherman.

 

Here some helpful tips on making sure your fishing charter experience is one you’ll never forget… in a good way!

  1. Speak with the captain of the fishing charter

You’ll be interacting with the captain, so if you can call the fishing charter ahead of time and chat with its captain to see if you might be compatible, that would be great.

Ask about their preferred tactics and techniques. Do they mesh with what you enjoy, or are you wanting to try your hand at something new?

Riding on a super-fancy boat but not jiving with the captain or crew probably doesn’t equate to your dream fishing experience.

  1. Ask about policies beforehand

You’ll want to ask the fishing charter if they have any soft or hard policies, such as if the fishing is catch and keep or catch and release.

If you’re new to fishing, you may want them to clarify what these policies and rules entail.

  1. Inquire about half-day charters

If this is your first time, or if you have a jam-packed schedule, you’ll want to ask if the company offers half-day charters.

If you really enjoy the charter experience, you can always opt for a full-day adventure on the next go-around.

Need more tips?

“Contact us today for additional tips and suggestions,” says David Kedzierski, owner of Coastal Realty Group.

“Our experienced and dedicated staff is here to help you ensure you have the perfect island and fishing getaway. We can also help you get in contact with some of the local fishing charters to see how they can assist with your fishing adventure at Grand Isle, LA.

Attention anglers: the fishing rodeo season is officially underway in Grand Isle, Louisiana.

Louisiana is legendary when it comes to fishing, and Grand Isle is one of the hotspots. Things are starting to heat up again, and fishermen of all skill levels are heading to the beautiful town/island for premier saltwater excitement.

Fishing: a vital piece of Grand Isle culture

Fishing is an important part of Grand Isle’s history. In 1928, The Grand Isle Tarpon Rodeo began. It’s become a highly anticipated annual event that brings over 15,000 people to the island every year to catch the saltwater fishing action.

Other fishing rodeos include the ABC Rodeo, E.D. White Rodeo, New Orleans Electric Association Rodeo, OMSA Rodeo, Swollfest Fishing Rodeo, LA Pipeliners Associate Fishing Rodeo, Wounded War Heroes Rodeo and many more.

As you can conclude from the number of rodeos, these are a big deal in Grand Isle. They’re not just a group of fishermen competing for bragging rights. The whole idea of fishing rodeos is ingrained in the Grand Isle culture, and the annual events are part of the island’s fishing heritage.

Many civic and local organizations put in a lot of effort to produce and host these fishing rodeos. These events are good for the local economy, and they provide fishermen with world-class fishing competition.

Fish your own way

With Grand Isle, you have a lot of options when it comes to fishing. Sure, you are more than welcome to attend one of the many fishing rodeos.

However, if you’re not one for competition, or if you want a more solitary or quiet experience, you can certainly fish from the beach or a pier. Chat with the locals and get real insight into Grand Isle fishing.

If you have your own boat, by all means bring it along.

Perhaps you are a newbie or you need assistance? There are numerous fishing charters to choose from who would be happy to help you with your fishing needs. Those experts know the waters in Grand Isle and will be perfect allies for your relaxing fishing journey.

Planning your next outing? Love fishing? Why not have those coincide in the ultimate fishing vacation.

Parents With Children Having Fun On Winter Beach Together

 

The Grand Isle Migratory Bird Celebration

The prestigious Grand Isle Migratory Bird Celebration will take place on the weekend of April 12 through April 14.

After a stretch of flying over the Gulf of Mexico, migrating birds take a much-needed “pit stop” at Grand Isle.

Bird lovers and nature enthusiasts flock to the island during this event. Last year, 168 bird species were accounted for during that three-day stretch. Yes, 168!

Daily bird watching tours are led by experts, so you can learn about the surroundings and know where to go to get in the thick of the action. There are also kayak and boat tours for added variety.

 

The Grand Isle Blessing of the Fleet

If you venture out to Grand Isle on the weekend of April 12-14, you’ll also have the option to attend the annual Blessing of the Fleet Festival.

This event, held at the Tarpon Rodeo Pavilion here in Grand Isle, includes many activities for the family, including fair rides, live music, carnival games, and food and drink booths. There will also be arts and crafts.

The blessing of the fleet, of course, is the main attraction. This is a salute to the maritime tradition of Grand Isle. It’s a ceremony to bless the boats and fisherman before they embark upon their shrimp season.

April 12-14 will certainly be an action-packed time at Grand Isle! You won’t want to miss it.

 

Spring time fishing

Fishing is actually great at all times of the year at Grand Isle! Over 280 species of fish await in the waters around the area.

However, if you yearn for the warmth of the peak months here, you can go ahead and get started with some spring fishing.

Go fishing alone, get some insider tips from the locals, or hire one of the many fishing charters to take you on a guided fishing trip if you’re just starting out or want to relax and have an expert do the “hard work.”

For the competitive sportsmen (and women) out there, the Elite Redfish Rodeo will take place on March 21-23 on the Bridge Side Marina.

Missed out on summer beach fun and fishing?

No worries!

Fall is actually a great time to pack your beach accessories and fishing gear and head out to Grand Isle, Louisiana. Read on to see some of the top reasons to visit during the cooler months.

 

Less “competition”

The summer is of course the time where most folks head out to the beach. It’s the traditional vacation season.

If crowded beaches and packed restaurants don’t bother you, then that’s great.

For those who like a little more elbow room when they’re taking a break from the same old same old, the fall can be a great compromise between the peak summer months and the winter.

Fishing charters will be more open for booking, and eateries may provide more personalized dining experiences with less patrons to attend to.

 

Cool weather

For those who like cooler climates, a fall beach and fishing trip can be perfect. You can enjoy lounging on the beach, pier, or boat without the scorching sun overhead to contend with.

 

Fabulous fishing

Fishing is great at Grand Isle, LA in the fall. In fact, Grand Isle is one of the most respected fishing spots around. Anglers from all over congregate here for multiple annual fishing rodeos and events.

If you’re not the most competitive of anglers, or if you just want a relaxing time doing some solo fishing or in small groups, you are good to go. There are numerous areas to fish from on the beaches and piers.

Did we mention there are over 280 species of fish in the surrounding waters?

If you’re new to Grand Isle fishing (or just fishing in general), chat with a fishing veteran or a knowledgeable local to gain some valuable fishing intel.

If need be, check out the local fishing charters and sign up for a guided fishing tour. Those could be good opportunities to “learn the ropes” and get to grips with the Grand Isle fishing experience.

 

Lower rates

And finally, you can expect to find generally lower rates during the fall when compared to peak spring and summer times. Use the savings in your expenses to put away toward next year’s beach and fishing extravaganza… or ratchet up your fun budget for the current vacation!
