Welcome to The Northshore Inspiration Guide for Fall 2023-Winter 2024, the first edition to sport our new look for St. Tammany Parish, Louisiana's official visitor guide. In this issue we highlight top festivals and holiday fun from October to March and take a deep dive into Carnival season so you can do Mardi Gras like a local. We go shopping in Covington (especially for art), pull back the curtains on our theater scene, explore Olde Towne Slidell, and bike the Tammany Trace. We take you sailing in Mandeville, on a safari in Folsom and a horseback trail ride in Bush. Then we give the pen to charter fishing captain Mike Gallo, who tells about his best fishing trip ever, and photographer Kevin Garrett on his visit to Liz's Where Y'at Diner. Then we circle the parish to highlight some of the best our communities have offer in food, shopping and fun things to do. So, grab a cup of your fave beverage, kick back and dig in to take Louisiana's Easy Escape.
