1994 Map of Saint Joe Pass

USGS Topo · Published 1995

About this map

The low-lying coastal marshes and intricate tidal bayous of the Mississippi-Louisiana border dominate this 1994 survey. Centered on the boundary between Hancock County and St. Bernard Parish, the landscape is defined by the complex aquatic networks of Bayou Caddy, Heron Bay Bayou, and Turkey Bayou. Small coastal settlements like Ansley and Lakeshore are tucked along the northern edge of the map, connected by Lower Bay Road. The geography transitions from these fringe communities into the open waters of Saint Joe Pass and Mississippi Sound. To the south, isolated landforms such as the marshy Half Moon Island sit within Lake Borgne, featuring distinctive points like Pokey Dutch and Gamblers Bend. This map captures the coastal environment before significant modern changes, preserving the locations of numerous unnamed lighthouse foundations and daybeacons that once guided marine traffic through these difficult shallows.
