2018 Map of Lake Eugenie

About this map

Lake Eugenie and the intricate wetlands of Saint Bernard Parish dominate this coastal survey, where the terrestrial landscape dissolves into a complex network of bayous and brackish basins. The map illustrates a shifting environment defined by the ebb and flow of Gulf waters through arteries like Bayou Biloxi and Bayou la Loutre. Geographic landmarks such as Wild Goose Island and Cat Fish Point provide the only significant relief in a region where water and land are nearly indistinguishable. Notable coastal features like Pirate Point and False Mouth Bay highlight the tidal complexity of the Mississippi River Delta's eastern edge. The presence of Lake of the Mound suggests long-term human interaction with this marshy terrain, providing a point of interest for those studying the intersection of coastal geography and regional history.
