About Laurie Avenue Paddlecraft Dock

Laurie Avenue Paddlecraft Dock is a public boat ramp in Bay County, Florida. It is managed by Bay County. It is listed as a hand launch only.

It is a hand-launch only site — there is no trailer ramp, so it suits car-top boats, kayaks, and canoes rather than trailered vessels. A floating launch and staging dock is available to help with boarding and loading. The site is government-owned and open for general public use. No launch fee is required. Confirm current hours locally before arriving.

This is a boat ramp facility only — come prepared with your own vessel and gear. As with any public ramp, parking, water levels, and conditions at the water's edge can vary, so it's worth checking locally before you go, especially outside daylight hours.
