Bask in the natural beauty of the Texas Gulf Coast at the Armand Bayou Nature Center and experience the pristine wetlands, forests and grasslands of the area. An abundance of fauna and flora live in the preserve, making it the perfect place to observe nature in all its glory.
Go for a hike on one of the trails and visit their live animal exhibits where you can observe bison, turtles, snakes, alligators, and raptors. The kids love the butterfly garden where the pretty winged creatures frolic and flutter. Tour the bayou on the Bayou Ranger pontoon boat, or take a guided canoe trip. Visit Martyn Farm on the preserve and travel back to rural life in the 1800s. Be sure to check out their many special events, like their Annual Harvest Festival.
The Armand Bayou Nature Center is open Wednesdays through Sundays. Admission is $4 for adults, $2 for seniors and children.
