The Mississippi River defines the eastern boundary of this landscape, where a string of riverfront settlements including Bertrandville, Jesuits Bend, and Promised Land line the levee. The geography is heavily shaped by an intricate network of drainage and transport canals, most notably the Intracoastal Waterway, Hero Canal, and the Concession Canal. These waterways navigate the low-lying wetlands between the river and the inland Bayou des Familles.
