Point Au Fer Island sits at the edge of the Gulf of Mexico, where the shifting coastal landscape of St. Mary and Terrebonne Parishes meets the open water. This 1970 survey, updated with late 1970s revisions, illustrates a remote wetland environment defined by intricate waterways and shell deposits. The arc of the Point Au Fer Shell Reef protects the inner waters of Mullet Cove, while navigation is aided by a Lighthouse and Radio Tower on Eugene Island.
