Breton National Wildlife Refuge and the Breton Wilderness anchor this coastal survey, documenting the shifting geography of the easternmost barrier islands in Saint Bernard Parish. The landscape is defined by the Chandeleur Islands chain, a narrow arc of sand and marshland facing the open Gulf of Mexico. These islands are critical habitats, as evidenced by the designation of the New Harbor Islands and landmarks like Redfish Point.
