2020 Map of Lake Cataouatche East
USGS Topo · Published 2020About this map
Jean Lafitte National Historical Park and Preserve dominates the eastern delta landscape, where the freshwater marsh of Couba Island separates the expansive Lake Cataouatche from the deeper waters of Lake Salvador. The terrain is a complex network of natural bayous and industrial channels, including the Bayou Segnette Waterway and the Intracoastal Waterway, reflecting the region's historical reliance on waterborne commerce and navigation. In the south, the settlement of Jean Lafitte sits near the junction of Barataria Blvd and Bayou Dauphine, while the southern fringes of Westwego appear at the northern edge. Significant drainage projects like the Millaudon Canal and Woods Place Canal underscore the long-standing efforts to manage water levels across these wetlands at the border of Jefferson and St. Charles Parishes.
