Where Moro Creek meets the Ouachita River, you’re going to find Moro Bay. Built around this bay and Raymond Lake, you’ll find Moro Bay State Park. The state park is a wonder to behold, but there’s something there that is truly exceptional in Arkansas State Parks, and that’s the ability to float on the backwaters of Moro Bay so close to nature that you can touch the trees.

Moro Bay is located at 6071 Hwy 600 South in Jersey, Arkansas.

Moro Bay isn’t Arkansas’s largest or most popular state park, but it is just about the most peaceful, and maybe the most intriguing, too.
