1994 Map of Pointe Aux Marchettes

About this map

Saint Malo sits at the southwestern edge of this coastal landscape, marking a historic point of human presence in a territory dominated by the tides and the labyrinthine waterways of St. Bernard Parish. The vast salt marsh is defined by an intricate network of lagoons and bayous, where land and water are indistinguishable without the precise surveying of the Bayou La Loutre and the sprawling Biloxi Bayou system. Industrial activity is represented by the Bayou Biloxy Gas Field, which spans the eastern marshes among features like Petes Lagoon and Brick Lagoon.
