Often regarded as the capital of deep bayou country, Houma (pronounced “home-uh”) is known for its strong Cajun roots and culture. Countless dance halls and restaurants pay homage to Houma’s Cajun culture in addition to a unique dialect, several distinct musical styles, and an annual, two-week-long Cajun Mardi Gras celebration.
Houma is also home to the United Houma Nation Native American tribe, which hosts plenty of cultural events on a regular basis as well. The natural environment is a critical component of life in Houma, which boasts more than 2,500 square miles of swamps and wetlands. Houma’s location on the Intracoastal Waterway positions the city as a gateway for many charter fishing expeditions, birding adventures, and swamp tours.
