2024 Map of Bastian Bay
USGS Topo · Published 2024About this map
The fragile, ever-shifting coastline of Plaquemines Parish is documented in this modern coastal survey, focusing on the intricate barrier islands and labyrinthine waterways south of New Orleans. The area is dominated by Bastian Bay and a series of navigational openings to the Gulf of Mexico, including Bastian Pass and Grand Bayou Pass. The landscape illustrates the precarious state of the Mississippi River Delta's outer fringes, where landmasses like Bastian Island and Lanaux Island serve as the final buffer against the sea.
