Double Bayou is an unincorporated community in Chambers County, Texas, United States.

The region's widely dispersed residents also had gathering places in the form of a cotton gin and sugar cane mill.

Boats continued far into the twentieth century to serve as the area's principal mode of transportation, sailing on Trinity Bay and Double Bayou.

Like with many other communities of Texas' higher coastal prairies, the people of Double Bayou suffered greatly from the floods that accompanied the hurricane of 1915.

Besides the Galveston Hurricane, several other storms struck Double Bayou, resulting in the loss of cattle one winter.
