St. Bernard State Park, Louisiana state park in St. Bernard Parish, United States.
The 358-acre park features lagoons, woodlands, and wetlands along the Mississippi River, providing natural habitats for local wildlife species.
Local businessman and former State Senator Lynn Dean and his wife Jackie donated the land to establish the park in 1971.
The park functions as a stop on America's Wetland Birding Trail, connecting visitors to Louisiana's coastal ecosystem and wildlife observation.
The park maintains 51 campsites with water and electrical connections, located just 18 miles from New Orleans' French Quarter.
After Hurricane Katrina caused substantial damage, the park reopened in December 2006 with restored facilities and a new water playground.
