2024 Map of Isle au Pitre

About this map

Isle au Pitre and the surrounding marshy shoals of the Mississippi Sound define this coastal landscape at the boundary of Louisiana and Mississippi. This aquatic environment is characterized by shifting sandbanks and shallow channels, where features like Pistol Bank and Cabbage Reef suggest the hazards of navigating these waters outside the established Intracostal Waterway. The map captures a portion of the Gulf Islands National Seashore on Cat Island, illustrating the preservation of these barrier island ecosystems.
