Point Au Fer Island sits at the precarious edge of the Louisiana coastline, where the waters of Atchafalaya Bay meet the Gulf of America. This coastal landscape is a complex network of marshes and water passages, defined by features like Raquet Pass and Mullet Cove. The boundary between St. Mary Parish and Terrebonne Parish winds through these wetlands, tracing a shifting geography of points and bends.
