101.7 LBD Audubon Park Excursion Boat Landing

Good point of contact before reaching downtown New Orleans, but very difficult landing in low and medium waters.

If you need a point of contact (other than the Moonwalk/Jackson Square) to meet someone in New Orleans, this would be the best place at a very recognizable and easy- to-get-to location. Well, better put, its easy to get to the base of the Fly. But getting up to the grassy park above is something like scaling a short cliff. Leave someone with your vessel or pull completely out of the water up to grass. You might need ropes to pull your canoe or kayak up. It’s a rocky landing with a very difficult exit at low and medium water levels. The rocks here have been packaged in stainless steel wire cages, resulting in something like a series of short cliffs. You will have to portage your vessel up and over these cliffs, which will not be an easy task, because the bank at “the Fly” sits 30 feet above sea level. In the early 1900’s it was used as a landfill, and Audubon Park actually encouraged citizens to dump their “clean” garbage at the site, in order to build up the land enough to keep it propped up above the river year round. The zoo once buried its dead animals on the site.
