2020 Map of Cypremort Point

About this map

Cypremort Point serves as the focal point of this coastal survey, where the terrestrial marshes of Iberia Parish meet the expansive waters of Vermilion Bay and West Cote Blanche Bay. The map highlights a landscape dominated by tidal hydrology and navigation, featuring the Acadiana Navigation Channel cutting through the open water to facilitate maritime transit. Significant coastal landforms such as Shark Island, Blue Point, and the northern reaches of Marsh Island are clearly delineated, illustrating the complex shoreline of southern Louisiana. Local infrastructure is minimal, centered primarily around Bayview Rd at the point itself. The presence of Terrapin Reef and intricate waterways like Bayou Lucien and Bird Island Bayou reveal a geography shaped by the constant interaction of the Gulf drainage systems and the low-lying wetlands.
