Pecan Island (French:La Pacanière) is an unincorporated community with a population of about 300 located in Vermilion Parish, Louisiana. It is located right under the southern peak of White Lake and two ridges comprise the island, which are actually cheniers or "ridges of high ground" in the coast marsh. There is minimal land in the region, with the island being "an old Gulf beach, composed of crushed shells and sand".
