Whiskey Island and the Central Isles Dernieres anchor this coastal survey, documenting the precarious geography of the Louisiana barrier island system. These narrow landforms separate the open Gulf of Mexico from interior estuarine waters like Pelican Lake and Bay California. The map highlights the complex network of tidal inlets and channels, including Whiskey Pass and Coupe Nouvelle, which define the movement of water through the marshlands.
