Things to do in Lake Charles

Lake Charles is the center of southwest Louisiana, and in recent decades it has become one of the most important energy hubs on the Gulf Coast. Liquefied natural gas export terminals, refineries and petrochemical plants along the Calcasieu River and the coast have drawn billions of dollars in investment, bringing a steady flow of engineers, contractors and executives. McNeese State University and two major casino resorts on the lake add to the economy. The city has rebuilt after hurricanes Laura and Delta struck within weeks of each other in 2020.
