About Cocodrie, LA

Cocodrie is an unincorporated fishing, shrimping and crabbing village in Terrebonne Parish, Louisiana, United States, 10 miles south of Chauvin and due south of the city of Houma. It is part of the Houma–Bayou Cane–Thibodaux Metropolitan Statistical Area. The settlement is known for being very near the landfall location for Tropical Storm Matthew on October 10, 2004, Hurricane Gustav on September 1, 2008, and Hurricane Zeta on October 28, 2020. The name Cocodrie is Louisiana French for "alligator" or more rarely "crocodile". It is a waterfront town, located due west of Grand Isle, on an inlet of another bay blocked by several barrier islands along the Gulf of Mexico. Cocodrie is connected to Houma, due north, by Louisiana Highway 56. It is at the end of the highway. Most buildings in Cocodrie are now elevated on pilings to minimize flood damage. Cocodrie is home to the Louisiana Universities Marine Consortium (LUMCON) W. J. DeFelice Marine Center, which was completed in 1986.
