2024 Map of Oak Mound Bayou

About this map

Indian Mound Bay and the surrounding marshlands of Saint Bernard Parish reveal a complex coastal geography defined by winding waterways and fragile landmasses. This environment is structured by numerous tidal passages, including Dutchman Pass and Southwest Pass, which facilitate the movement of water between larger bodies like Bay Boudreau and the open Gulf of Mexico. The presence of Anderson Point and the Hell Pass Coast indicates a shoreline in constant flux, where small islands like Raccoon Island and the Mud Grass Islands stand as vulnerable remnants of the deltaic plain.
