The Leaf River, like the Chickasawhay River, flows for more than 150 miles through southeast Mississippi before merging to for the Pascagoula. For most of its length it tends to be a bit small for many motor boaters and a bit big for many paddlers, making it an ideal spot for a quiet getaway. Many other rivers and creeks join the Leaf River along its course and it grows significantly before its terminus. On this section, the river has acquired a couple more major tributaries and holds enough water and deep holes for motorboats. The beautiful, forested scenery remains and there is a lot for paddlers to explore and see.
