2020 Map of Bay Ronquille

About this map

Point Cheniere Ronquille stands as a prominent geographic marker within this coastal section of Plaquemines Parish, where land and water dissolve into a complex deltaic fringe. This modern survey reflects the fluid landscape of southern Louisiana, characterized by an intricate network of interconnected basins including Bay Ronquille, Bay Cheniere Ronquille, and Bay Long. The presence of the Robinson Canal near Pipe Bay suggests human engineering intended to manage or traverse these tidal environments, while Quatre Bayou Pass serves as a primary conduit to the open waters of the Gulf of Mexico. The area is defined by its low-lying marsh structure, featuring numerous small internal bodies of water like Lake Robinson and Billet Bay. This map provides a clear record of the shoreline and maritime features as they existed in the early twenty-first century, a period of ongoing change for the Louisiana coast.
