2024 Map of Point Chicot

About this map

Breton Sound and the surrounding coastal waters dominate this maritime landscape in southeastern Louisiana. The map charts a transition between the open Gulf of Mexico and the inner reaches of Eloi Bay and Chandeleur Sound. At the northern edge, small landmasses like Deadman Island and Grass Island provide the only topographic relief in a region otherwise defined by the sea. The boundary between St. Bernard Parish and Plaquemines Parish runs across the southern waters, marking a political division in an area largely devoid of human infrastructure. The presence of Public Land Survey System grids, such as t15s r19e, indicates how these coastal waters and submerged lands are formally partitioned for administrative and resource management purposes.
