About Chauvin
Sitting just south of Houma along Bayou Petit Caillou, Chauvin is a small Cajun fishing town where daily life revolves around the water. Working shrimp boats line Highway 56, and many residents make their living right off the bayou docks. The area is also famous for the Chauvin Sculpture Garden, a fascinating collection of concrete folk art created right along the water's edge. For anyone drawn to saltwater fishing, rich local traditions, and a quiet, close-knit way of life, Chauvin offers an authentic taste of coastal Louisiana.
