1963 Map of Tigre Lagoon
USGS Topo · Published 1978About this map
Vermilion Bay dominates the southern reaches of this coastal landscape, where the marshy terrain of Iberia Parish meets the Gulf. The mid-1960s environment is defined by an intricate network of natural and engineered waterways, most notably the Intracostal Waterway which cuts through the wetlands. Industrial activity is centered on the extraction of natural resources, evidenced by the Tigre Lagoon Oil and Gas Field and the South Tigre Lagoon Gas Field. These industrial sites are situated amidst a complex hydrologic system of tidal bayous, including Bayou Petite Anse and Three Bayou. Landforms like Champlain Point and the northern tip of Shark Island provide vital landmarks for understanding the shifting shoreline of the era. The map also delineates the parish line between Vermilion Parish and Iberia Parish, highlighting the jurisdictional boundaries in this low-lying region.
