Fred Gannon Rocky Bayou State Park

One of the many activities you may enjoy at our park is spending the day on the peaceful and majestic lazy southern Rocky Bayou Aquatic Preserve. Invite your friends and family out for a fun-filled day on the water.

Depending on the time of the year, you may encounter dolphins and mullet fish jumping out of the water around you. As the tide comes and goes, these playful creatures make an appearance.
