Mozambique Point marks the lone terrestrial landmark on this coastal sheet, reaching into the expanse of Black Bay. Located on the shifting boundary of St. Bernard Parish and Plaquemines Parish, this area is characterized by the open water of the Louisiana gulf coast. The survey depicts a landscape defined by its marine environment, showing the extreme southern reaches of the marshlands where the land begins to give way entirely to the sea. The inclusion of the St. Bernard Parish line serves as a primary reference point for researchers tracking the historical and geographical limits of these two coastal districts.
