Grand Isle has played a special role in the culture and history of Louisiana for more than 300 years, since the first explorers cast their anchors off the cost of Grand Isle. Grand Isle has also produced generation after generation of Louisiana's Best fishermen, reflected today in the incomparable skills of its charter boats whose captains and crews find the fish as one else can.
Unlike other "resort" communities, Grand Isle hasn't chosen to go modern. It possess an unpretentious mystique that is as warm and comfortable as South Louisiana hospitality. That is why generations of Louisiana families and return year after to bask the sun and bathe in the gentle surf. They keep coming back to fish, either on shore or off shore where the big ones wait to feed, either near the giant rigs or in open water, or the back bay.
At Grand Isle, shell collectors prowl the beach by day while at night the flickering glow of lanterns illuminate beach as nocturnal fishermen reap a harvest of flounder feeding along the shore line.
The history of Grand Isle is filled with pirate lore. Treasure hunters have searched in vain for gold and silver that is said to have been buried somewhere on Grand Isle.
For most of the year, Grand Isle with mild temperatures and clear weather, is a leisurely place that attracts visitors who come to fish, walk the beach, explore the dense undergrowth at the center of the island and observe the hundreds of thousands of migrating birds who make Grand Isle their first stop for rest when they return from the tropics across the central Gulf of Mexico.
