Kenner

There are plenty of things to do and enjoy in Kenner. For starters, this city has excellent fishing, a number of golf courses, and a cycling and jogging path along the lakeshore for the outdoor enthusiast. Also on the lake is the Pontchartrain Center, a convention center and sports venue with more than 70,000 square feet of space. More than 400 special events are held in this state of the art center throughout the year. Be sure to visit Rivertown for a number of good dining spots, art galleries, and great boutiques. Shopping is available at the Esplanade Mall just north of the airport. Children will love the Kenner Planetarium and dome cinema and the Space Science Museum, as well as the Louisiana Toy Train Museum (also in Rivertown). Kenner is just a 15 minute drive to the French Quarter and is perfectly situated for you to explore all of the wonderful things New Orleans has to offer!
