When the temperatures start rising, you’ve got to find ways to stay cool. Especially in Louisiana. Luckily, we have plenty of waterways to splash around in, including White Sands Lake. This pocket of paradise is tucked away in Franklinton, but you’ll feel like you’ve been transported to the tropics.
Whether you have the whole family in tow or you’re looking for a solo adventure, White Sands Lake is an ideal destination for summer fun in Louisiana.

The lake features several inflatable toys that will bring out the inner kid in you.
