Creole Nature Trail
Hackberry, LA

Seafood provides the basis for the major industry of this part of Louisiana's Outback. This is particularly evident in Hackberry, where shrimp and crab houses line the byway.

The importance of the waterways to this area is obvious as travelers pass through town. Signs advertising seafood, crab bait, cast nets, hunting and fishing supplies, and local guide services are common sights. Because of the abundance of natural resources, many commercial crabbers, shrimpers, trappers, and fishermen make Hackberry their home.
