Despite being on the Gulf Coast, Louisiana doesn’t have the endless miles of beaches that our Alabama or Florida neighbors are known for. But don’t be fooled, Louisiana does have some beautiful beaches that are perfect for an adventure on a warm day. When you’re looking for a bit of solitude and fun in the sun, a trip to this underrated sandy beach in Louisiana is just the ticket.

Hiding in the tiny town of Homer, Lake Claiborne State Park is a little slice of paradise that’s just waiting to be explored.
