Waterproof sits along the western edge of the Mississippi River, its street grid reflecting a historic proximity to the water that defined the development of Tensas Parish. The landscape is a network of backwater bayous and old river channels, including Big Choctaw Bayou and Buffalo Bayou, which wind through the alluvial plain. The town itself is organized around a core including Main St and Tensas Ave, while the surrounding countryside is dotted with small agricultural settlements like Highland, Goldman, and Barcelona.
