2019 Map of Texas Point

About this map

Sabine Pass serves as the critical maritime artery at the border of Texas and Louisiana, where the waters of the Gulf of Mexico meet the coastal marshlands. This maritime landscape is defined by the heavy engineering of the Jetty Channel and Outer Bar Channel, infrastructure essential for reaching Port Arthur. On the Texas side, the small settlement of Sabine sits near Mud Lake, with streets like 1st Ave and Welch St providing local access. Across the state line in Cameron Parish, the terrain is dominated by Hackberry Ridge and the reach of Lighthouse Bayou. The contrast between the natural curves of Texas Bayou and the straight lines of the deep-water channels highlights the area's role as a primary gateway for Gulf shipping and petrochemical transit.
