How to Use This Delacroix, Louisiana Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Delacroix, Louisiana. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of Louisiana or beyond.

Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).

TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Delacroix.

Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.

Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

Delacroix emerges from the low, saturated horizon as a fragile outpost where the land surrenders its firmness to the encroaching reach of the tides. It lies 13.6 miles east-southeast of Belle Chasse, LA (from Belle Chasse, LA: bearing 118°T), and is situated 9.5 miles southeast of Poydras. Bayou Gentilly carves a narrow, winding path through the marsh, its dark waters holding the reflection of a sky that seems wider here than anywhere else on earth. A mile away, the surface of Lake Lery mirrors the shifting moods of the coastal light, turning from a bruised slate to a sharp, brilliant silver as the sun migrates across the wetlands. Beyond the immediate banks, the low-slung expanse of Delacroix Island separates the firm ground from the open, restless sound of the coast, creating a landscape defined by the constant, patient negotiation between the salt and the silt.

History in Delacroix clings to the shifting margins of the water, shaped by generations who learned to read the currents and the seasonal migrations of the catch. The economy remains tethered to the bounty of these brackish channels, with the daily labor of the docks serving as the steady, rhythmic heartbeat of the neighborhood. While the world beyond might seem distant, the people here maintain a quiet, intricate connection to the land, their lives marked by the same slow, inevitable cycles that dictate the rise and fall of the tides. Those seeking the reach of the wilderness often look toward the Division Of State Lands, a expanse of protected territory that preserves the wild, untamed character of this southern edge, far removed from the more settled geography of the Poydras Crevasse.
