Celeste Anchorages (50.9) is located in Davant, Louisiana, along the east bank of the Mississippi River in Plaquemines Parish, a region characterized by its low-lying wetlands and proximity to the Gulf of Mexico, making it a key point for coastal navigation. This marina serves boaters engaged in riverine and Gulf Coast activities, such as recreational sailing and fishing along the Mississippi's lower reaches and nearby coastal waters. Its setting in this deltaic area highlights the blend of freshwater river systems and saltwater influences from the Gulf.
Marinas typically need to separate slip holder parking from day-visitor parking, trailer areas, launch ramps, and secure dock access points. Modern facilities use barrier gate systems to enforce these zones automatically — allowing permitted vehicles through via transponder or keycard while logging all access events.
