Morgan City and Berwick occupy the critical junction where the Lower Atchafalaya River meets the maze of bayous and lakes in the Louisiana delta. This landscape is defined by its relationship with water and industry, with the city and its residential satellites like Wyandotte and Siracusaville crowded onto the high ground of Tiger Island. To the north and south, the environment shifts into a complex network of marshes and islands, including Avoca Island and Bateman Island.
